| In life, there are days and moments where everything we do does not feel enough, or face situations that are beyond our control. A common response to such instances is to doubt ourselves and our abilities, and that is a very normal and human thing to do. But the effect of self-doubt can cut both ways: It can either spur us to achieve our goals and thereby boost our confidence levels, or cause us to feel entirely powerless and paralysed. Fortunately, whether we allow it to work for or against us is mostly up to us. In this issue, we will explore the ways in which we can harness self-doubt to build confidence -- one step at a time. | | Moving from Self Doubt to Self Confidence It would be nice if moving from self doubt to self confidence just came naturally. However, moving from self doubt to self confidence is a practice you can adopt, with practice. When you are able to identify where your insecurities lie and what is stopping you from feeling confident, you can then start the process of moving from self doubt to self confidence. You will be able to work on eliminating the blocks that are keeping you from moving through life with assuredness. Here are some of the culprits for the patterns of self doubt and ideas for what you can do about them. | | Why confidence and knowledge can lead to smart money decisions Two common areas that cause people to procrastinate financially are knowledge and confidence. Logically, we know that financial literacy can boost our confidence to make informed money-management decisions. Yet, many people tell me that they lack the confidence to learn and absorb that financial knowledge, which holds them back. However, everybody is capable of effectively managing their money. While some need mindset adjustments, others need a confidence boost or a little reassurance that they are on the right track. Take small steps, follow and when doubt starts to creep in, remind yourself that money is only a tool and you are learning. | | 9 Habits That Are Destroying Your Confidence  | | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones.

I believe everyone deserves a dependable adviser whom they can always rely on and have an unbiased opinion, yet passionate about your goals you set in life.
In order to achieve them, we need someone who is competent yet empathic about our individual situations.
To me, that person is Noah; and I would gladly recommend him to everyone who is looking for an adviser; or someone who wants a second opinion on what they currently have. | |  | | Lisa. Legal Counsel. I originally reached out to Noah about a specific plan for early stage illnesses. After some discussions and advice from Noah, we realised that this plan did not meet my requirements and so I did not proceed. Noah was very patient through this process and not at all aggressive.
I subsequently spoke to him about a separate accident plan as this was missing in my portfolio. He was very prompt in his responses, and provided comprehensive and clear advice. I am very appreciative that he listened to my needs. He never once pushed me to get more expensive or additional plans I did not need. I would definitely recommend him for financial and insurance needs. | |  | | Mimi. Civil Servant. A few months ago, I decided to get a second opinion on my existing policies.
I sought a close friend's husband, Noah, who went through my policies. He noticed that I was paying too much for insufficient coverage and drew up a cohesive plan to ensure that I get my essential needs covered.
Talking to him was a breeze and he made things comfortable - there was no hard-selling.
I know this is damn cliché but I'm glad that I made the decision to have Noah review my policies! Highly recommend seeking him for any doubts that you have in your policies!
THANK YOU! | |  | | Syazwan & Nisa. Technician & Nurse. Noah was recommended by our mutual friend as I was in the market looking to get my family protected as our baby was on the way.
It was a very pleasant and easy conversation and he listened to our concerns patiently.
Noah recommended the insurance coverage needed for me and my wife according to our financial needs.
I can finally have a peace of mind for both me and my wife’s wellbeing moving forward into the future.
If you ever have doubts or need clarity about your current policies, I'm sure Noah will be more than willing to listen and review your existing policies!
Thanks Noah! | |  | | Hidayat Aziz. Business Owner. Tentang Kita Co. When Noah initially approached me, I was skeptical at first as I thought that he was just trying to sell me another plan. However, when we actually sat down and had a proper chat, it was totally different from what I had expected. He took the time to understand my concerns, needs and also my financial capabilities.
Only after understanding all of that, he then curated the most realistic and achievable proposal for me.
What really sets him apart was his knowledge in Estate Planning and Faraid Law. He helped me to see the bigger picture and was able to address my concerns and see to it that my wishes are fulfilled.
By the time we were done, it was already 3am in the morning!
I am sure that Noah always puts his clients’ interest first, and I truly believe that everyone should go and meet him! | |  | | Michael Seow. Senior Financial Services Director. I knew the Masagoes family for more than 2 decades. So I literally knew Noah since he was a small kid. The Noah I know today, had transformed into a confident and outspoken young man.
He came into my industry to work together with me, placing his full confidence and career into my hands. I’m glad to say that he’d been very focused in his new found career, spending much time learning the trade and putting in his newly acquired skills and knowledge immediately to work.
Noah has proven himself by working very hard as well as being very dedicated and caring towards all those he has been serving. A rare gem of a young man and I am very proud to be working along side him in his new endeavours.
I wish him nothing but the best always! | | | | |
