Hard work is effort-oriented whereas smart work is result oriented. You'll learn a lot from hard work because you'll face failures.

In order to get an experience. I had to do hard work. But once I got experience I will turn to smart work. Without hard work we can't go to smart work. Based on situation whatever we need.

Both hard work and smart work give solution for a particular problem but smart work gives a solution in a minimum time with more brain usage than hard work.

Ultimately, smart work is the best option to save time as well as to improve mental ability/skill/knowledge.
