Something to think about from another new agent..

http://www.investmentmoats.com/budgeting/insurance/words-from-an-actual-insurance-agentthe-industry-is-flawed/
"A scary amount of middle aged adults still believe themselves immortal and that they cannot possibly get hospitalized or worse, affecting their ability to provide for their family. Most young working adults simply go from paycheck to paycheck, saving $0 every month and heading straight for disaster the moment a situation calls for usage of emergency funds which do not exist, or they just dump a token amount into their bank account every month that dissapears into the newest xbox or ipod the moment they get enough. Most young working adults do not even have a clue what medishield or medisave is, other than that it is something CPF related.

I feel like im constantly rolling dice and seeing if I can get a lucky combination just to find a single interested person. I would like to continue on in this line of advising people on financial planning, but I do not see how as most people simply want to go through life without any financial planning or insurance protection at all. And actually I don’t even know whether what im doing can be considered financial planning anyway."

i guess that feeling of apprehension never changes. as much as business is picking up after the new year, that constanat nagging feeling of "is this right for me?" doesn't go away.

Must continue to strive on,
Jessica
