Planning for the Future — Without Panic

Every time I heard “retirement,” I used to freeze.

I didn’t know how much I needed.
I didn’t know what “enough” meant.
And I definitely didn’t want to feel stupid for not knowing.

Here’s the truth:
Most people don’t have it all figured out — especially in their 40s or 50s.
You’re not behind.
You just haven’t had the right plan (yet).
And that changes now.

🌿 Three Steadying Steps for Future You

• Ask the simple questions.
  How much do I need per month to live well?
  What does “retirement” actually look like for me?
• Track what’s already there.
  You can’t grow what you don’t see.
  Get clear on your income, savings, and basic expenses.
• Find your pace.
  Maybe you save RM100/month.
  Maybe you cut back just one thing.
  Tiny consistency > big confusion.
