working smart is time-saving and you can maximize the potential of anything that you are doing in a simple way and make more productive.
Working out thing doesn't need to make it a full force but add some knowledge to make it easier. working hard is a good way but not always a nice thing to have.
why don't we work hard in a very smart way?

In order to work in a smart way, you need to spend a lot of time to get a large amount of knowledge. This is very hard work. For training you do not get paid for their efforts. Most often you spend your money in exchange for knowledge. That's why very few people can make money doing smart work. People who do not know how to think with your head think with your hands. This is the law of life.

Come on man ...I don't think that.. by working smart you have to do less work..rather than your work load is increased because you have to use your brain too ..to give everything a direction.
I think that... Working hard and working smart ..both are related as

Working smart = working hard + Giving..that hardwork a definite direction.

The idea that you should work smarter, not only harder isn't anything new. When talking about the difference between smart and hard work it's pretty simple to explain what working hard means. If you want to be successful in the long run, you have to put long hours into work.

Indeed, working hard makes you tired at the end of the day. Where as when you work smart, you will have a relax time and would definitely make the work easier. Same as the way earnings should be done, you have to do a smary way of earning instead of doing it the hard way. Another thing is when you do a smart way of your job you will have a bigger chance of earning bigger income.

Actually, I don't think we can draw a distinction here, though I agree that working hard looks like a cruel misnomer. That is, we shouldn't in fact compare working hard with working smart. It should rather be working the right way (smart way) versus working the wrong way (stupid way). What I mean is that you can't distinguish the right way from the wrong way just by how quickly you get tired. I think it is not a proper yardstick. In other words, you can tirelessly and enthusiastically do something which still wouldn't be considered smart, as in working smart (obviously), by any metric.

Good way - turn a hobby into a job.
But there we have a problem - if hobby becomes a job, you can start hating it

I was reading Jack London - Martin Eden recently. Martin was working hard in loundry 6 days per week, he lost opportunity to dream and plan new ways to find his place under the Sun, such life also made him drink to take a mental break from constant labour. He could not save money for future because of small salary. His mate left the loundry to become a tramp, Martin said: "Indeed, better to be a tramp than work like that".
So I also dont beleive hard labour makes people rich, they would better spend their enegry to find better place and better business field which fits their skills and aims

Many people say that you should work hard if you want to succeed in life and rise to riches.

They say this as a way of saying: do not be lazy and push yourself.

What is your practical take on working smart?

have your own business and get good profits... if you work for a company, then you must raise money and build your own company, this is what I call smart work. In the company of owner you never know when the owner of the company will dismiss you and if you die your wife and children will suffer.

But in case you have your own company, you die your wife and children will be managing the company.

working smart, is when you work to create conditions for the future you have your own company

I have heard this dispute since childhood. all my relatives are sure that working hard is the only way for a decent person. It is noteworthy that none of them has earned enough money. For myself, I decided that I will always work with the mind to distinguish when it is necessary to exert maximum effort, and when it is not worth it.

It is the way parents are manipulating their children trying to make themselves into rolemodels for their offspring, without ever understanding that they are in fact making them bad service. You may not be good at something, and that's okay since no one is perfect, but don't pretend your way is the only way to success or what you achieved is the ultimate success anyone can only hope for in their life. Interestingly, this is perfectly in line with how bosses are manipulating their staff, though they are not evidently following this route themselves. So it is a deliberate manipulation on purpose.

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?

Working hard has two directions viewing angles that are obviously very different.
1. Work hard on other people : Of course this kind of work will benefit our boss to become richer (as op said), because our lives are easily controlled by the finger of our boss.
2. Work hard for (the company) myself : It's better because we can directly accelerate the growth (development) of our company to be more advanced means there are obvious reasons to get rich.

Meanwhile working in a smart way.
This's clearly the goal only for the advancement of the self not for the progress of others, in this way we can enrich ourselves even faster than working hard on other.
There are several factors that support this type of work, among others: skil, experts and cunning, these three factors are very potential to make someone work smartly.

Let me share my experience with you. I will share the experience regarding online work. I used to write content at $1 per 500 words when I was in college. With time passing by and some experience I came to know that some people are getting $1 per 100 words. I put some advertisements and got much work at such rates. Then I realized that only way to get rich with this is to resell the content writing services. I was managing more than 10 writers at one time and all were busy enough with my work.

An example of working hard can be attributed to Africans who mostly use their energy to clear wide areas of land for farming alone and because of that they are less productive but if they have the latest in agricultural machinery, they could have improve their productivity a thousandfold and that i believe is working smart.

Between working hard and working smart; I will tell you that working smart is the best and it really pays. But most people don't know about this or don't believe in that ideology. They believe working day and night, leaving the office at late hour after everyone is gone is the way wealth. All that is just nothing but stress activators. When you do things the smart way; you stay healthy to enjoy the fruit of your labor but if the other way, the person might die even before the wealth start coming in.

Yes we know it's easy to work smarter,but do we have that kind of skill?For us to work smarter,we need a certain skill that can help us to do our job easier,thus make our live easier.But for some people who don't have that skill,their only option is just to work harder and harder to fulfill their needs.

Well, that's an interesting question really. When I come to think of it, somehow I am always cornered with the thought that there is no absolute yardstick about working smart because it's all relative. We can think about working smart vs working hard in two different dimensions which don't necessarily collide and often even don't overlap. On the one hand, it is how we ourselves feel about our work. For example, we may be not quite satisfied with what we do, thinking that we could work smarter, not harder, with essentially the same result. On the other hand, it is what others think about what we do. Obviously, people may think that you are working in a smart way while you may in fact think differently, and vice versa. Perhaps, there are other dimensions to this riddle or puzzle.

Let me give an insight or my point of view. Since I am also working and can relate to this topic with the thing what you called "work smart" and "work hard", I can say that these categories can be group as to how productive and efficient one person can be in a given environment or workplace. The difference is that to work smarter is do task or chores in a very efficient way and probably ended up with great results without you exerting to much effort(it does not mean that giving less effort gives a worse outcome since you are doing it in a very effective way possible). As to work hard stance, you are doing what things that are designated to you in a normal way and it means that you are not thinking of a better way to improve it(probably because you are focus on just finishing the task and not thinking of an efficient way to complete it).

Well yes I think manoeuvring your way through life into positions of greater opportunity is something humans have been doing for thousands of years. Its in our nature to seek out abundance. However I don't think an over abundance of wealth nessasarily increases your happiness and there is probably something beneficial a hard days work can have on your mind

I think a lot of people work hard because they don't really know how to work smart. By this I mean that people must learn to do a little research first and then start working. Sometimes people spend a lot of time trying to solve a problem, that was already solved by someone else. Working hard is like needing a wheel and inventing it first, instead of using something that was already created. This way they would be able to do a much better job, if they worked smart. In terms of programming, I've always heard that a lazy programmer is a smart programmer, because he is ok in using what is already available to him, instead of trying to re-create every bit of code. Not talking about stealing here, you should always give credit to what you use.

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.

Work hard so that your time isn't wasted and that you'll learn how to further improve your gameplay. After then you have work smart so that you'll be up above the competition. You can work Hard all day everyday but without a goal or thinking about how everything goes you cannot progress or get promoted. Both go hand in hand and both are needed for success.
