| 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.

Seen him from single to 3 kids and staying in big house! But he is as humble as always. Now he runs a successful team on consultants. He is genuine and speaks from the heart on what he does. | |  | | Gladys Soon, Financial Consultant During the short 4 months working with Kenneth, he has been an amazing mentor. Given the tough industry, Kenneth had played an integral role in getting me to find my footing. With his guidance, I managed to place a much more firm footing in here as compared to my other peers.
Kenneth has always made himself available and has taken great interest in my trajectory into this industry. Under Kenneth's mentorship, I have seen growth in myself, even beyond my professional capabilities. His ardent support has me feel that it was the best decision to join Opulence to have the opportunity to be mentored by Kenneth. | |  | | Nick Teo, Business Development Director A mentor is someone who has patience, foresight and magnanimity. Kenneth has all of those traits and more! He's mentored so many, and guided many more to success. And most of all, he is a man of great Faith and great Love. | |  | | Crystal Huang, Senior Financial Consultant I joined Kenneth's Team back in 2018, and I would say it was his character and transparency that gave me the leap of faith to join the Finance & Insurance Industry. Time flies and it is my fourth year, Kenneth would still be ever ready to assist me should I need advise, and also he continues to support the Team with prospecting methods and ideas. Despite being in the industry for more than 20 years himself, he is always open to new ideas, suggestions, and continues to learn from others (signing up for courses/ hearing from others). He is a leader who leads and inspire many others. | |  | | Lee Peng, Business Process Analyst Kenneth and Clesphrin have been helping us for the past few decades. They always work hard to help us find the best solutions as our needs change in various stages of life. They have been extremely patient and informative, making the decision making process a lot easier for us. | |  | | Gary Giam, Senior Financial Consultant Having working with Kenneth for the past 4 years, I can say with certainty that Kenneth is an excellent mentor and a goal getter. He makes sure that we are well equipped with the knowledge and the necessary skill sets to provide top advice to our clients as well as to the people we meet. Being an introvert, it isn't easy for me at the start, but with his guidance and experience, I am able to smoothly transit into my sales role without much seatbacks.
If you are looking for a breakthrough in your career or interested in doing sales but unsure if you are suitable for it, I would strongly recommend reaching out to Kenneth! | | | | |
