Of course mental work is always appreciated more so in our case there is no option, we do not build houses, and work wisely.

Well for me as a working abroad. I guess its better if we do it both. Working hard and smart. Because you are not just working hard to earn money you are workng hard and smart to earn more money and be promoted to earn more money. So that if you are working hard and smart your boss will appreciate your job.

Many people say that you should work hard if you want to succeed in life and rise to riches. I'd rather say that working hard will only make your boss richer, not yourself. On the other hand, there is an age-old adage which says that you should be working smarter, not harder. But working smarter is a vague idea, and I'm interested to hear what people have to say on this topic. As far as I'm concerned, I think that working smart comes down to creating environment where you will have more chances to meet Lady Luck smiling at you, where you will be able to hit a lucky strike because luck plays an ever-important role in our lives. For example, if you want to find a date to have a romantic relationship with or you are looking for a one-night stand only, you will go to a beach or a bar since your chances are higher there, right? The same approach seems to be applicable to work as well. In other words, stick around the places where your chances of success are the highest.

So share your opinions here, guys. What is your practical take on working smart?



Below I will be posting replies which I consider most relevant, revealing and insightful on the topic discussed.

You have a point man. Actually I have been hearing this sort of argument even when I was still a child. My father will always tell us to work smart, and make money out of money. And when I grow up, I did work hard, but I later realized that I don't want to be worker that long. I need something to help me became financial stable in the future. So I decided to quit my job, put my offline business. Although I still need to wake up early and oversee everything, I did enjoy what I'm doing and the best thing, I'm the boss. LOL. But there's some kind of element in luck as well. I don't know but I felt that I'm just lucky because suddenly I gain financial freedom and then when I discovered bitcoin, it give me another leeway, more funds for me to channel to my business. So I say that you have to make the right decision + element of luck = success in your life. You have to be in the right place at the right time.

...

Even when we have heard several talks about working smart, but a lot of people are still work hard thinking that someone will have to teach them to work smart or they are thinking they are working smart. Quite a number of times, I am always taken aback when I begin to imagine what people spend their time on to earn money, struggle, use their strength but nothing to show for it while they are left with no other option than to believe in miracles in other to come out of penury. However, working smart is not something that falls on you or easy to come by, rather its a conscious effort to break away from the shackles of poverty with constant research and education, you are sure to work smart and be financially independent.

What do you mean by working smarter?

I will try to explain the difference between working hard and working smart using an example from software development. Let's assume you have a large set of data which you should sort (arrange elements of the dataset in a certain order). You can take a naive approach and use a bubble sort algorithm which is devastatingly slow. Or you can use something like the quicksort algo which is extremely fast. In the end you will get the same result but times spent will be strikingly different. Now you can try to apply this example to real life.

I don't think that relying on luck is smart. It is truly risky. I think that smart work is rather about thorough development of the ideas, high level of rational success predictability, not luck attraction.

I see your point and I don't particularly disagree with it. But I didn't mean you should rely on or hope for luck alone. You can continue to work hard for your boss as always and still be looking for an opportunity or chance to change your life dramatically to the better. Let's loosely call that working wise. Basically, all I wanted to say was to emphasize that you shouldn't discard or write off the importance of luck completely. Ignoring a stroke of luck when it happens all of a sudden against all odds would be the most foolish idea that you will likely regret for the rest of your life. In this manner, it makes sense to work toward increasing your chances of meeting Lady Fortune one day. For example, if you want to be romantically involved with someone, it means visiting places where your chances of starting a romantic acquaintance are the highest.
I agree partially with you because the combination of both can produce better results when compared working single handidly by hard work or smart work.You can use you intelligence more then your physical activity and you can be successful in your life. Many millioniries have used this secret to become successful in their life.Try it and you will see the extra benefits you get from it.

I started small working for a minimum wage job in the semi-conductor industry. I worked hard by then, often taking over times. While working in that field, I'm am also studying CGI and through the years I developed skills. On my day-offs, I will try to apply to companies in that industry and when I finally got accepted, I filed a resignation notice and then after 15 days, I started working as a CG artist on a small indie company. I learned how to balance leisure and work time so my body is not taxed too much. I know work smartly with my system. Instead of driving a car to work, I will take my bicycle and it does help me exercise and maintain physical fitness. I also do strength training on weekends.

Learn to work smart by balancing work and leisure.

As far as I can understand about this topic it isn't important only to work hard but to work smartly meaning you plan your work, you work on your job, you deal with it,  you play it well and not you being slave to your work and not attaining something...you know how to strategize your work...till you make it successful.

Plants and roots are complementary to each other as well working smart and working hard,no one can be dropped.According to me,the highest number of people reached the door of progress in life after crossing these two stages.It's necessary to work hard to cope with all the problems in life,but the process of the work must smart.

Both has to applied in a percentage of 70% of smart working and 30% of hard working. Its not always the smart work will help nor hard work both has to be pilled up in order to achieve success. Hard working or smart working has to be chosen by us relying upon the situation and we should never hard work blind which will make you to stay up in the job but never take you to the next position unless you think and act smart.

Working harder is easier in a way, you can work an additional hour and you are already working harder or you can try to increase your output in the same time frame working smarter is a lot harder, but it can give you more profits in the long term, for example if you know how to code you could create a script that does a part of your job that you need to do over and over again this saves you time and effort that you can use for something else.

I stand with Ukraine.
Imo chances of success are the highest when you do the job you enjoy the most. Only this way you can devote yourself completely to what you are doing and while others do the job only during working hours you can do it with pleasure even during your days off. Thus you will most likely outplay others in the business and even if that won't happen so soon as you expected, you will not regret anything because you were doing what you enjoy to do.

Hardworking is to enrich your boss. I think this idea is only true when you go to work for others, But if you do business for yourself, I think diligence is essential. About Intelligence, In my opinion, Do whatever you need to have the best analysis of the market, so if you are smart you will analyze the market more accurately, helping you minimize risk. Being smart and hardworking will help you succeed in your job.

I think it is better to work smart because life is all about resourcefulness, on how you finish the task smartly. for example, i saw a picture last week about working hard vs. working smart. a cube should be moved to the other side of the path and the other person pushed it towards the path, the other carved it into sphere so it will be easily pushed. In that way he reduced effort and time on doing the work. With that, you will have more time and energy to do many things.

I believe in both, they procure you better results and a sense of fulfillment in any field pf work
or profession. When you do know the ropes and routine of a certain job you can pinpoint and
assimilate how things work and anticipate certain process and situations. If you can avoid all
that stressfull part and perform effortlessly clean, thats smart. Working hard is a classic and
normal habit in the fiels. Once you have enough experience, you’ll be smarter.

I think they are just as important as working hard with smart work. Working hard means working long enough and energizing as much as possible, while Working smart is how we work our best with greater results for the same business or similar results with less effort. Hopefully we know the difference between Hard Work vs. Work Smart. But it all depends on the person who responds and responds to the meaning of everything. thank you

Obviously, This is only for smart people along with their smart job. So that working smart is really essential at this moment. On the other hand, Working hard always and all the ways brings a lot of success. Without working hard, no one can succeed anywhere.
That's why we have to do our job with the combination of both smartness and hard work. No one can be smart without working hard. So at first, hard work should be started initially and then you will be smart naturally.
For me, working smart is thinking ways on how to work effectively without wasting any of your effort. Working hard is doing your job in the custom way with more effort to exert but success is really possible.

There are also some instances that working smart is not effective if you dont excute it well and working hard also can be failed if it is not well planned so the two should combine to have a successful output.

Working hard is a best way to reaching target goal but without working smart you will wasted your time. Being smart is about making smart choices. Its about making the right decision, the right step or the right choice. Smart people move up the ladder real fast.

Working hard or working smart cannot be separated from each other. Even when working hard you have to make smart choices. Work hard in making smart choice and work even harder to learn how to make smart choices. Make mistakes but be smart enough to learn from them.

I think both is good for me,because working hard and smart always be a partner,working hard as well is like working smart too.
anyway without working hard people can not get succesful. so we need working hard and smart too


I don't think so, it depends on what job you have and how you are working with that job, because there are times that we are always working for money but we don't know how money would work for us, that is why we are wasting our time. IF I'm going to use between working smart or working hard, I would choose working smart, and that would be on cryptocurrency, Trading, joining signature campaign and so on.

Because I'm observing every employees that I'm seeing, for example is on the fast food chain, small boutique and so on, I could say that it is tiring and there is no single day that they are not working hard yet their salary is not enough for their everyday needs.
