Working hard or Working smart
We have often come across the phrase that “dreams don’t work unless you do” and then we also hear “work smart and not hard”, but what is smart work? Is it only with smart work that we attain success and if yes then why do people around us work so hard to reach their objectives?
No matter if we opt for hard work or smart work, what will bring us great results is the one that we need to discuss.
But anybody can attain success and can live a better life if he incorporates both hard and smart work together. There could be people who are smart and do not work hard to attain a successful life whereas there are people who work very hard to achieve their goals. It depends on our capabilities if we are capable enough to put in the smart work or the hard work success is somewhat achievable in both.
However, the combination of hard work and smart work will push us toward our objectives through a very strategic approach. If we focus on just working hard it may not pay off if we are not smart.
Similarly, smart work is the consequence of our hard work, to be smarter, we need to work hard. When we work hard, we attain experience which can aid us to determine things that can assist us to work smartly.
‘Ultimately it is the effort that is important, but where to put that effort makes all the difference.’
