I think there is no difference between hard work and smart work, rather I would say smart work is the extension of hard work as hard work gives you experience and smart work comes from experience. So untill, you have the experience you cannot work smartly.

The relationship is of superset and subset. Where hardwork is the superset and smartwork is a subset. One who is a smart worker is a hardworker too. But not every hardworker is a smartworker. Smartness can be achieved through experience after hardworking.

Key difference: Hard Work is when one does some work dedicatedly. Smart work is when someone does the same amount of work, but faster and more efficiently.

Most self-help gurus will advocate this fact, that in order to succeed, one must work hard at it.

The difference between hard work and smart work is how we approach a task.

If we approach a particular task without any prior research and planning is hard work.

Approaching with proper planning and research is smart work.

Thank you mam/sir for asking.

Smart Work and Hard Work are two faces of the same coin which is called success.

The fine difference between them is - hard work can give you short term success but smart work will give you success for your whole life. Smart work will precede hard work.

Hard work: It means you work it with confidence, that even for a worst situation you can do things possible.

And we can do smart work after you master the hard work, you can do it easily, because experience is the best learning that hard work taught us.

Hardwork is the work which is doing with physically but not any mentaly force.

Smart work is work which is doing with less work but more brainly. Smart work is the time saving work then the hard work. And smartwork's accuracy is so good to the hardwork.

Hard work is one when we do certain things without effective planning and no results could have been obtained which was expected and the smart work is when we get the work done through people without any phisical stress just like effective management.
