Weekends may not be the best time to prepare for a English test

This is weekend and I'm off from work.

I thought that I would have a lot of time to prepare for TOEIC test.

I do have time, but the problem is how I spend the time.

I need substantial time to get my brain free from communication related to work, but TOEIC test includes questions which test our skills of business communications.

Preparing for the test can prevent me from get rid of stress from work, so I'm thinking it's not so good to spend much time to prepare for the test when I'm off from work.

Instead, it may be a good idea to prepare for the test early in the morning of weekdays, because it can also be a warming-up for effective communication (although there is difference between English and Japanese) required for work.

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.
