Unless you learn about the computer, you won't be knowing anything about the shortcuts. So learning about the computer is hard work and using the shortcuts is smart work. Hard work is the step to smart work.

Hard Work and smart work both are the way to get accolades or can say the key of success. Hard Work includes more physical effort and time while smart work attenuate them. Hardwork is the beginning step to smart work. But sometimes when we have shortage of time smart work acts as panacea for us.

Explained with the help of an example.

A man keeps on cutting trees with an unsharp saw, he does manage to cut a few number of trees (this is hard work). Had he sharpened the saw he could have managed to cut many more number of trees (this is smart work). So utilizing your resources efficiently means smart work.

HARD WORK is giving much stress to body as compare to mind and following the traditional way to accomplish the task consuming excess time.

SMART WORK is inventing and implementing new ideas effectively taking a lesser time to finish the task.

Or we can say "hard work" is physical where "smart work" is mental effort.

You need to do hard effort with time to get work done in proper manner but, Yes. If you regularly doing the something with the correction of error. You'll find the key of smart work to complete the same task. SMART WORK COMES FROM YOUR EXPERIENCES.

From my point of view, hard work and smart work both are interconnected with each other.

Everyone has not the same intelligence quotient. So they do hard work to achieve their goal. One day comes for those persons also in their life when he finds their way without hard work. Because this is hard work only which sharps our mind and increase the accuracy to do hard things.

Thank you.

Hard work:

Trying to get answers by others ideas (Like the reader of this example).

Smart work:

Thinking and creating new ideas in a different way (Like the friends who answered this question).

Hard work includes penetration of task which ever assigned to us and we go to depth of that thing to make sure completion of task from start to end it might take more time but it ensures good job and decreases the errors while smart work is done short duration to finish the task some time it can be effective but sometime it might result disaster.

Smart work can be defined as the work that will be undergo in a corporate office where your work and you have the recognition.

But hard work is like the work which we works but the recognition or the result may unknown.

That means may take an example of government offices where the Recognition is given to the seniority itself only.

It is not to criticize them but about the Recognition given to their work.

We can define smart work as a Work which can be done on right way and on right path. A work in which we put our effort in such a way so that we can be certain about good results. In hard work we work but without any direction, so in this way results or success becomes unsure.

I will tell it by an example.

A wood cutter cutting a tree constantly hits his axe.
Against the trunk for 8 hours and then the cuts a tree.
This is hard work.

The same wood cutter hits the axe for 2 hours and then sits.
And sharpens his axe for an hour gets rest in that time and.
After next 2 hours he cuts down the tree due to sharp axe and.
Fresh hands, this is smart work.

Hard work takes more time and make a stress but smart work does not provide more effort. For example study all the questions with out any rest and got a good results means it is a hard work. But study the important one and got the good results without any stress means it is smart work.

SMART WORK is a knowledge to finish big problem within less time.

Hard work is just like studying book from first page to last during exam.

Smart work is like arranging the topic according to there value and priority to decrease the efforts.

So that Smart worker always got good marks than Hard worker.

Both will fetch you the final result but hard work takes more time than smart work. From hardwork we can know what kind of mistakes a person commits from that particular task thus consuming more time, which will be helpful for others who are doing the same work thus reducing time which is called smart work.

Thank you sir.

Person works hardly and person works smartly means that if a person works hardly it means that he or she puts great energy, effort or much work in the work that must be done. Smart work means that person puts intelligence, cleverness and uses brain in the work that must be done.

In my view, there is no much difference between hard work and smart work.

Hard work involves body.

Smart work involves mind.

Therefore hard work and smart work involves body and mind.
