Since Bitcoin deals with financial sector I would like to highlight Robert Kiyosaki cashflow concept on this topic. According to the best selling Author Robert Kiyosaki, 90% people are trapped in the rat race and their continuously busy in doing hard work but they forget that they are working for those 10% people who are working in a smart way. I would like to promote his book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" and I recommend everyone to read it to understand how the society is working right now on the financial level. Two things are extremely important time and financial freedom but we will need money for the same.

Well yes you are right here that one can’t go with both at the same time but I think this is the trend now to go for both at same time. If someone have will power and concern to do something extraordinary in this time, he or she must be doing hard work but smartly. Because if you don’t have smartness, others will take anything uplift and you are there with nothing. So be competitive, do hard but smart.

I think people can work both smart and hard at the same time though. It's a combination that would most likely spell success if you develop skills on how to do both. It's going to make you very efficient in whatever you're trying to accomplish and successful people i think are.able to do that

For me "working smart" has two meanings. First one is that "smart" refers to those kind of work, that require you intellect, rather than physical exercises. Intellectual work isn't that difficult, comparing to physical, but it must be appreciated more. And the second meaning, "smart" may also refer to the way you do your work, not the nature of work: you need to find useful contacts, you need to know how to plan your time, you have to be orderly and know how to present yourself.

Personally, I don't think it is the right approach to distinguish between hard work as mostly physical and smart work as mostly intellectual, though it should be clear that when your work involves physical part, for example, as a mover, there is not much you can do with it, I mean, doing it in a smarter way. So we are basically left with intellectual work involving your brain, and that's where most of the distinction should be made between working hard and working smart since you can use your intelligence in a smart or dumb way.

I was about to pint out this thing. We need both attributes in life to be successful from every angle. If the person is hard working but not smart, again it is going to cost him much of the time and other resources to meet the deadlines. On the contrary, if the person is just focusing on being smart and not paying any attention on working hard, he or she is again going to suffer because simply buy understanding things, you cannot score well, you need to grasp them by hard working.

If you ask me, working smart is far more better than working hard. It is true that working hard can get you somewhere, but if you work smart it can get you further. Working smart means carefully analyzing every situation to save time, effort and too much work, but at the same time earn as well. One can still have extra while doing it.

At first you would be working hard because you don't know yet what are the things you should do to make your work easier. Take for example being an employee of a restaurant. In the beginning, you are not familiar with the practices involved and you work hard to know every thing and then you got promoted in which case, you will know more abut how to run the business. Later on, you would know what to do and decided to build your own restaurant given that you already have the capital and you have connections as well because of your previous job. You hired employees to work for you so you are not working that hard anymore. You are already working smart earning more income but having lesser work.

The best thing we should do to success in our own field is to combine both of it. Working smart is just working efficiently without any hassle. You are working without putting your all force but you are earning a lot. Yet it is good to work smarter, success can't achieve without having a dedication to your work. Work harder keeps us to push beyond our limits so that, we are developing time by time. Aside from that, work harder promotes us to become endured when it comes in difficulties. If you have enthussiasm with your work, you have the eagerness to make it more successful. That's why we need also the virtue of a hard worker person.

For me it is a very nice blend because both are in dire need for success, have one thing in common that is closely related. I think the good view you see from the positive side.

Being smart and being hardworking because those are positive attributes of a person. Working smart means you can come up with a better and new ideas that you will be working hard.

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.

That's a good example but not so much about working hard as about working dumb, which is kind of markedly worse. Everyone knows that working at McDonalds should be considered only a temporary or side job, for example, when you are a student and don't have rich parents ready to shell out on your education. No matter how hard you work there, you won't get anything above the minimum people are earning at the place on average.

Yes that’s true, but sometimes you have to work hard to achieve some things. What I’m trying to say is that despite it is very important to think smart, you might come up with some ideas that requires you to work really hard before you can accomplish them. You don’t just think smart and relax, waiting for you ideas to put themselves into work and put food on your table, nah, that’s never gonna happen. You will need to work for your ideas. Well, working smart.

Well, in the OP's standpoint, I think what he means in working smart is that you will find ways to make your work easier than what it supposed it should be. I mean, you will do things that will benefit you in the process and remove any hard task along the way. You will still work but with a strategic plan to make it simple as possible.

IMO, working smart doesn't work all the time. It will still vary depending on your situation. Most of the times, working smart really pays-off your cause but in some cases working hard is much better than working smart. For example. let's say at work, you are assigned to work on a presentation where you must make it as good and as informative as possible. You work smark in a way that you ask your workmate to help you with the presentation and asked him/her for some ideas about but both your ideas don't match up with one another and in the end, you end up working longer for that presentation as what it supposed it should be. On the contrary, if you work hard for it in the beginning and thought well as to how you can make your presentation meets the requirements, you'll definitely have a concrete idea and finished it at a shorter time.

Being intelligent will be a good news signaler for future. In addition, intelligent processing will be beneficial to ourselves in certain business divisions and will not cause us to stay away from tiring jobs. If it is too much, too heavy and too much to handle, we will not be able to go further than an activity that will wear us down and will not be a journalist in a good career. When the two shapes are combined, it is difficult to predict the consequences of the right strategy.

Working smart can save time rather than working hard. Because it's more time saving if you work smart you can able to determine whether it is time to invest or not.

I agree with that, but for me, you cant separate working smart and working hard, working smart is determining whwther a certain strategy will work but the application will fall on working hard for you to achieve the goal, working smart is just for a boss and when you combined the two you can be called a leader who can do the task of his own employee which was missing if you are a boss.

Working hard and working smart is both a positive attitude one should have. An individual who works hard will definitely achieve what he/she is aiming for so as the one working smart. But for me the one working smart will achieve more than the one working hard. And the one who works hard and smart will surely go far than the one working smart or the working hard.

working hard without being smart is a waste of effort, you will just be on your work for the rest of your life.

You need to be smart, a smart worker will give importance to his/her job in such a wise and perfect outcome,
always have time with the family and thinking on what is better and what is right to do.

We hunters are being smart here, that is why we are getting better in life.

by working smarter we spend less energy. and there will be more things we can do. and of course this will make our income become larger.

This is a sequel to this thread. If you are interested only in the fat of the thread and the cream of the theme, look no further than this and the second post here.

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?

For me working smart is a kind of strtegy that you have a kind of technique that make fastly and unique.And in terms of working hard this kind of aspects will create you more patient to strive hard.

practical take on working smart... umm...gotta think about this in that way...sounds interesting pretty much. I have always believed in working smart rather than hard. It has stronger implications than working hard. In the contemporary times, it's good for everyone that they explore and find out new methods to work smart and save their much valued tie in doing something constructive that can get them faster returns.

So from my life experience i can say that it's always better to focus on smart working rather than hard working.

Working hard will not always be a guarantee to make you rich because you will only make your boss richer. But it's different when you work hard for a business that you, yourself is the boss. I guess hardwork pays off if you own the business yourself and the effort you've made for that business is well worth it, when your the one to gain it all. Also working smarter is just doing hard task simple and faster. Therefore both is useful when working on something.

This is correct, that is why we must always strive to try to start our own business and to be our own boss you need to understand that your boss doesn't pay you because he likes to do charity, he pays you to do a job and if he wants to remain in business he needs to pay you less than what you are producing, so you need to make an effort to create your own business it doesn't matter if it is not the most glamorous as long as it gives you money then you can employ the strategy of working hard and obtain and retain all the benefits for yourself.
