| 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 have known Jasper from a previous place of employment and that was over 20 years ago. I left to pursue my career in social work and he, insurance/financial service. He contacted me when he came into the sector and has been my advisor since…and that was in 2014. I have seen him grow as a person and a professional in this field, and his dedication to meeting his clients needs and providing the best service, has not faltered since when I first knew him. In fact, it has excelled and knowing how committed Jasper is, I would not hesitate to recommend him to any of my friends. In fact, I am blown away by his precision in numbers and details and his excellence in his excel works (pun intended)! Thank you, Jasper, not for just being a friend but having my interest in mind and being an awesome advisor! Blessings! | |  | | Jason Low I was introduced to Jasper through a mutual friend as I was looking for someone to advise on my financial status mainly in terms of wealth accumulation then..After meeting Jasper and sharing my thoughts with him on my goals, I realized that not only is he detailed in providing an analysis of my current financial status, he also spends time in advising on other aspect of portfolio which he think is lacking and equally important for my retirement plan. He is patient and meticulous and does constant reviews whenever the needs arises . I am glad to know him as my financial advisor. | |  | | Darren Jasper was introduced to me by one of our mutual friend. It started with me wanting to get a basic accident plan, but I am impressed with his constant followup and annual updates, and soon acknowledged that he is a serious and sincere agent, who is willing to spend his time to find out and address your concern, no matter how big or small it is. Very steady person and frd | |  | | Dexter Huang I know Jasper for more than 10 years and not only he takes care of my financial portfolio, he now handles my family's financial portfolio.

His detailed analysis and breakdown enabled me to know which areas am I lacking, enabling me to cement and secure the bases of my finances. This is where he is different from the other advisors that i have met up with, and is why I am very satisfied and grateful for his services. | |  | | Yixiang and Gin We have signed up our policy with Jasper for x-years. Jasper is a very dilligent , responsive and down-to-earth agent friend. He will make sure he at least meet us yearly to review all our insurance plans to make sure we are covered at least minimally so we have lesser worry. Whenever we have any doubts on insurance or heard of new rulings on insurance he will be the first we call. He respond very fast and is not bothered by our calls. We are assured he will not disappear on us and follow up through should we need any assistance.
