I believe smart work always comes after hard work.

First, you need to understand the process thoroughly doing the hard work and then analyzing where you can reduce your time and efforts is smart work.

Hard work is a part of smart work.

Smart work strategy decides which are the aspects on which we should focus with enough effort and which are those we should delegate to others or with less effort!

Thank you so much to ask this question,

In my opinion, hard work means a great deal of effort in a maximum period of time but smart work is when that same work is done instant with proper planning.

Hardwork is when you put in a lot of effort to achieve some goal.

Smart work is when you achieve the same goal with less effort making use of some strategic planning with a more pragmatic approach.

According to me, both hard work & smart work gives the best result. But without hard work, smart work is not possible because hard work gives you experience and smart work comes with experience.

The difference of hard work and smart work is, that smart work is the key of lazy people to complete the work most easily and many MNCs hire lazy people for do their work faster than the normal way.

Hard works mean to do any work by using body power and smart work means do any work by physically and mentally.

But we should do any work both physically and mentally that both are needed (equal).
