A kind thing to do at work is to smile at the people that you pass in the hallways. A smile and a quick “Hello” or other friendly greeting, might make another person’s day. Amazingly, that smile on your own face, may cheer you up as well and pick up your attitude, focus, and energy level. Even for those who like their jobs–or love their jobs–the stress of deadlines and complications can take the zing out of anyone’s day. Some people at your work are no doubt hiding worry and troubles behind a calm exterior; your smile might help them feel the warmth of connection on a human level. Everyone needs that sense of connection and giving it genuinely is so easy.
