Well, I would say smart work comes from hard work only. As there is one theory also ' Work hard until you get smart. So, in my point of view, you can do smart work only if you have work harder in your life. And knowing where to put effort and where not to work hard is smart work.

According to me, Hard work is putting lots of effort and time in the work and also hard work wants to be in patience to complete the work.

Smart work is completing the same work with less effort and time and it is done by logical and practical thinking abilities.

Sir in my opinion there's a very interesting relationship between hard work and smart work.

From hard work you'll get experiences, where as smart work comes from these experiences. So for an individual both smart work and hard work are very important. At the same time, I also learned another thing from my life, that sometimes hard work could be a pretty alternative of smart work but there's no such replacement of hard work exists. Thank you.

Time is the most precious thing in the world and it cannot return for anyone is the saying I am hearing from the childhood. So saving time is more important and we can do it with smart work.

Hard work also important because smart ideas will come through hard work only.
