| As humans, we have an innate need for connection and approval from others. Often, we make an effort to gain validation and this is natural. Yet, in our world today, this need for others’ approval becomes magnified; as many of us are constantly plugged in on social media, we tend to get caught up in the pursuit of “likes”, “shares”, “follows” & engagement. These can have implications on our mental well-being and happiness. Through this issue, I hope that we can be more aware of the impacts & risks associated with excessive use of social media, and what we can do about it so that we can live out our best lives. | | How to Stop Worrying What Other People Think of You If you find yourself looking over your shoulder, self-conscious, or fretful about how your actions will look to others, here’s some help to stop worrying. | | The Social Dilemma: Social Media and Your Mental Health ‘Like’ it or not, using social media can cause anxiety, depression, and other health challenges. How can you change your habits? | | A Reason Not to Worry What Others Think  We spend a little too much time worrying about how we must appear in the minds of others. However, the poignant, useful truth is that almost everyone doesn’t care at all about who we are, what we’re doing and how we’ve messed up. | | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones. Let me know if I can be of help to someone you know or care about. We can make a difference to lives when it matters most.

© Muhammad Syamim, All rights reserved. | |  | | Irdina (HR Executive) Syamim takes the time to go through in detail about financial planning & the different types of insurance & investments to ensure that I have a clear understanding about what I am getting myself into.
He isn’t your typical financial advisor, he goes the extra mile to help you achieve your financial goals/milestones. He will conduct financial reviews with you to ensure that you’re on the right track.
Would highly recommend anyone, especially new hires to get in touch with Syamim to understand the importance of financial planning! | |  | | Naufal (Data Analyst) I chose to meet Syamim after a close friend recommended him and spoke highly of his approach. I was also looking for another advisor I could truly trust with my policies.
The most beneficial part of our meeting was the comprehensive breakdown of my current financial portfolio. Syamim highlighted what I already have in place, what I’m lacking, and helped me map out clear goals for the future. It was an eye-opening and practical discussion that I believe would benefit others my age as well.
Compared to previous financial planning sessions I’ve had, this experience stood out. Syamim genuinely took the time to understand my financial situation and showed real care and effort in helping me improve it. It felt personalized, thoughtful, and sincere.
I would definitely recommend this meeting to others. | |  | | Zaki (Supply Chain) I met Syamim because he is a close friend of mine and I knew from our relationship that he was someone professional and trustworthy. Any communication with him regarding any topic was very easy and fast.
Upon meeting him, he made me realise the importance of insurance to protect my income and health in the event of any health issues. Most importantly, the financial plan that he crafted for me made me become more disciplined in my savings which allowed me to reach my financial goals faster such as planning for my marriage.
I would highly recommend anyone to meet Syamim so that he can share with you the importance of financial planning as well as create a step by step plan to achieve your financial goals. | |  | | Akmal (Software Analyst) I’ve known Syamim since 2013 and he’s always been giving me advice on my finances and career plans informally when we’re out with friends. Once I started working and had lots of questions about adulting it only felt natural to ask him for advice as he’s someone I meet regularly and also someone I could trust.
The simplest things like goal setting and financial planning (down to the daily expenditure) are the most helpful to me because it keeps me on track every day and reminds me what my priorities are in life. Syamim also helps me decide on my end goals and suggests all the steps I need to take in between to make it happen.
Syamim caters his advice based on my current situation and the things I aim to achieve, instead of providing generic, scripted plans. Our goals change a lot during the course of our lives and he doesn’t turn my opinions/dreams down but always helps to plan the next steps to move forward. He lays all the options down on the table and makes it clear that ultimately I decide on what to do next as there’s no definite right or wrong as long as you’re optimistic and plan ahead.
I would definitely recommend meeting Syamim for a quick chat. 10/10 | |  | | Fatil (IT Support Analyst) Syamim is a dedicated adviser who will undoubtedly give it his all no matter how small or big the task is. | |  | | Shan (Firefighter) Syamim was referred to me by my childhood friend. It was to do financial planning for my wife and I. Syamim went the extra mile to look into these for me and realized that 1 of my policy was over paid and the benefits was not worth for the amount I was paying.
From my experience, most financial advisors will relatively ask you to start investment plans and seldom speak about emergency funds. Syamim was the opposite, he told me to grow my emergency funds first and invest only after that. He has given me a bigger picture on financial planning and choosing the correct policies. Its never 1 option. He always gives minimum of 3 options and a recommended one. That is what we call a zero obligation consultation.
We met a few times before deciding on a certain policy. Every meeting with him was a beneficial one. I believe 1 consultation with Syamim is enough to know where you currently stand in your financial profile.
I would definitely recommend Syamim to people I know. His knowledge in financial planning is top notch. | | | | |
