Both are necessary to achieve success. If a work complete with planing. Then we can say that this way is a smart working way.

If we try to solve a problem without planing but the result came 100%. This way is hard-working way.

Hard work based on physical strength without thinking about smart work. Smart work based on mental ability to decrease the work burden for present generation smart work is more important than hard work to save time and stress.

Hard work is when you put your extra efforts for work given to you, and you have to do it before the deadline.

Smart work is when you ue your mind to do the given work in the smart way, by using less time with less resources.

Efficiently doing any work is smart work. The process is optimized and fast where the resources are widely used in this case. On contrary, hard work consumes time, energy as well as resources: at times they might exhaust you.

To become a successful person we required both hard work as well as smart work.

Hard work requires patience, time, and a lot of effort but smart work requires experience of hard work. Without hard work smart work is nothing.

Hard work and smart work is same at the end which means at the result. But we can save time and energy in smart work than the hard work. But the thing is you can be a smart worker through your experience from your hard work.

One of the best example that I have from my childhood is hard work is like a staircase and smart work is like a lift, you may fail or get stuck sometimes but for sure I don't have much time and energy to choose a staircase.

Suppose a wood cutter is cutting wood without sharpening his tool for hours that is hardwork and if he sharpens his tool and cuts wood then its smart work.

One can finish the same job in a lot lesser time with smart work.
