Hard work: more efforts but less work.
Smart work: fewer efforts but more work.

In my opinion, both are necessary so I will choose to do h/w in a smarter way.

You can work smartly only when you have worked hard and know the in and out of doing any task. With hard work, you will come to know the ways of doing things in smarter way We can say hard work is the mother of smart work.

Hard work is the basis of smart work. Without hard work, no one can do smart work. Eg. If one is preparing for exams then he will go for short trick which is a smart work but for learning those tricks we have to do a lot of hard work.

Yes, it is true smart work save our time and efficiency but for this make possible he has done a lot of hard work before.

I think both of things are important in a person because smart work is done by hard work, but it should be in the right direction. We can't do start smart without hard work. These are the two sides of a coin, so both are important.

Hard work is to get more knowledge, and the smart work is to apply the knowledge during the emergency time.

Sir,

In my point of view, they both are key of success. Because hard work gives experience and smart work is coming from that experience.

Hark work is nothing about working for our needs may be with intrest or without intrest.

But, smart work is respect and love the work even what kind of job it is.
