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.

I've known Lata since my family and I moved to Singapore. She's been a great help and resource to our family's financial planning. A trusted friend indeed. Do get to know her. Would be great to have a good mind to tap on should you need an objective opinion.I was referred to Lata by a good friend of my husband's and met her for a brief discussion about our financial plans. I must say that having a resourceful & knowledgeable friend to call on can really make a difference. I hope you can avail yourself to get to know her too. Highly recommended. Talk soon!

Thank you for trusting me with your family's future.

I came to know Lata only in May 2020. She took over my policies when my agent left. Lata has great customer service and always expeditiously replies my queries. Somehow, she knows I cannot wait for her replies and will immediately handle my queries even when she is about to go into a meeting in two minutes. She will forward links to me and assist me in following up. I know I am not her only client but her urgency to respond to me is ridiculously fast. I and glad Lata won the MDRT award and I believe there will be many more to come. Cheers Lata and continue to feel the pulse of your clients!

For several years Ms Lata has been our Family Insurance Agent. She has shown and provided an exceptional service. Always ready, willing to help and answer questions in times of need. I am glad to know her and to have her as our insurance agent.

Arranging for private medical insurance was a priority for me when I relocated to Singapore for my job. Although I, my wife and children have medical coverage thanks to my job, I was keen to ensure we had private coverage in place too. Lata was good at listening to our concerns and our wishes, and gave us clear, focused advice on what would best suit our needs and situation. She listens intently, has a quick and sharp mind and recommends a good fit in line with needs and concerns, rather than trying to push a product. We have since turned to her for guidance on other concerns too and are happy to recommend her.

There are many insurance and financial consultants out there. So generally speaking, buying an insurance policy these days is not a difficult task. However, I found that having an financial consultant that listens to me, that accurately identifies my needs, that understands me and provides me with the right vehicles to secure my future, is an extremely daunting task. Fortunately, I found a planner that has all the above traits and is a very hard worker; Lata Shamdasani. I have recently purchased insurance policies through Lata. She explained to me in detail, the different offers from different perspectives. Very honestly, Lata explained to me what was covered and -more importantly- what was not covered. I know that Lata has put forth a lot of effort and time to compile a policy that suits my needs. I am truly grateful for all the help and knowledge Lata has provided and I know that Lata will be a great help to anyone who wants to secure their future.
