As humans, the pursuit of change and progress is something that is innate to every one of us. Like it or not, there will always be things in life that we hope could be a little different, a little better in the way that daily situations & events turn out. It could be in the way we think, speak, or the way we handle everything from our finances to our relationships with others. We seek to become better -- and we should. As we strive to continuously exceed our potential, we rise above all previous versions of ourselves and grow stronger. In this issue, we look at some ways in which we can embrace a better self and an even better future.

The Relentless Pursuit of Improvement

It is no secret that I believe growth is the only guarantee that tomorrow will be better. It is no mystery that I think personal growth is the steppingstone to success for any leader. If you or I want to stay in front of the curve and lead others, then we must do the work that keeps us out front. We must continually improve. But as I seek to improve, there is one thing I know not to chase, and that is perfection. Perfection is a trap. Do not chase perfection as a leader - chase improvement. Make today better than yesterday so tomorrow can be better than today. The relentless pursuit of improvement will take any leader far.

I used to be jealous of other people's wealth and success - here is how I finally got over it

Envy. It is an emotion that we all feel at some point. It is also a really dangerous emotion when we are trying to build a strong financial life. Envy is pure poison to a healthy financial life. After all, envy encourages us to make some pretty poor decisions. Like every other character flaw, however, envy can be overcome. You can directly reduce the envy itself, or you can at least reduce the bad choices you make as a result of envy. Here are seven strategies I use to cut envy out of my own life.

Testimonials and Referral Notes

Shahril & Sarfina

I got to know Syamim during NS and a few years later, when me and my partner decided to get ourselves insured and do some financial planning, I knew who to call. Syamim is very professional and efficient in his work. He gives the best financial advice to tailor to our needs. We would strongly recommend Syamim to anyone who’s looking for a financial advisor.

Omar (Marketing)

Syamim he was referred to me by a few close friends who assured me that he would not be aggressive or very insistent, which was something that I have not liked when it came to previous experiences with financial advisors. Syamim's sharing was straightforward and easy to digest. The information that was put in front of me helped me to assess my current financial situation and helped me look ahead to chart my path. Syamim's sessions were very relaxing and he is very approachable as he is open to giving you honest advice, which I appreciate. This was very different than other sessions I had with other advisors. I would definitely recommend this meeting to others! If you have had bad experiences with other financial planners, put your preconceived notions aside and speak with Syamim, you might be pleasantly surprised!

Sarah (Retail)

I had a great experience with Syamim and felt satisfied with his proposal on the insurance policies. When he came down, he was well prepared with all the paper works. Apart from that he is well versed in his job to make everything easy to understand. The experience was really pleasant as he provides good financial advise before recommending me the different policies.

Carlo (Engineer)

I met Syamim for a financial planning consultation, learnt a lot about financial planning and setting goals. He has helped me plan for my personal milestones through an excel and it has allowed me to keep track of my progress as well as know how much exactly to save/invest in order to meet my goals. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a detailed and personalized financial plan.

Diana (Teacher)

I chose to meet Syamim on the recommendation of my husband actually! I thought it would be seamless and easier if Syamim manages both of our plans and I’ve never regretted my decision! He’ll listen to your needs and recommend the best plans for you. I like that he gives options for his recommendations and he respects my choice. I like the part where he asks me what’s my current coverage and how else can I better protect myself. He also maps out what I’m aiming for in the future so I find that very helpful if I know where the money I’m investing in my plans is going to. He also goes through the plans in detail, and yet simplifies it so it’s not too overwhelming. I also like that he personalises and customises a sheet to track my plans, so I know that he is keeping up with it! His session is different from other advisors that I’ve met where it’s just an overload of information and they just recommend the plans to get without asking the consumer what are their goals. I would definitely 100% recommend this meeting to others! Syamim will provide a customised experience for your financial planning needs!

Rusydi (Nurse)

I got to know Syamim from my brother-in-law and chose to meet him because of his sound knowledge and experience in financial planning and commitment to his clients. Syamim is always well prepared for our meeting. For example he prepared a customised power point presentation during our first meet up which allowed me to better understand the content and options that we have. He also takes into consideration many factors when giving advice such as budget and upcoming life events. He is able to suggest several plans based on our situation that we can consider and does not push us to choose a single plan. I would definitely recommend this meeting to others!
