What action from colleagues makes me smile

In my workplace team members set monthly goals to improve our working environment.

We set goals in three points, greeting, smile, and cleaning.

This month our goal in smile is doing things to other members which has made you smile.

Until this month has passed half way through, I wasn't much conscious about this goal.

When I work out mid-term review, I have to confront the fact that I haven't taken this goal much seriously. I haven't been aware of what action from colleagues has made me smile.

After I knew this fact, I began to try hard to remember members' actions which made me happy.

I remembered that I felt happy when my effort for better greetings and business manners were acknowledged and admired, and when members were interested in what I had wrote on the corporate blog, regardless of technical article or mental health article.

This workout of remembering has made me more aware of many things by members that have made me happy, and help me think more highly of members, which help improve the mood of the workplace and mental health of the members.

Am I going to be disadvantaged forever because the skin of my face and my head is too dry? This is one reason why I thought that I wanted to escape my country when I was 11 and 25. This made me learn some foreign language. However, I'm learning that overseas isn't so good as I dream about, especially as long as I go to public school. W...

It's my lack of confidence that is to be beaten

Autism, is it something to be removed? Or is it just another type of human being? I can't answer to this question. I, as you see, have language, and have a job. Although my struggles are real as well, I hear that there are a lot of cases of struggles many thousand times than mine. Ones who don't have language, or with serious behavioral problem. Although my behavioral problems, mainly social awkwardness, I can't answer the question whether autism is something that should be beaten. Instead, I can answer one question. I have to beat my lack of confidence through long struggles, if I want to succeed.
