Hard work is where we don't have any knowledge about that work and we are trying. Where as smart work is where you have both knowledge and ability to do that work in a smart way.

Smart work basically deals with your mental aptitude and intelligence. How you do the exact same kind of work in different more efficient ways.

Hard work deals with a predefined path which is definitely going to take you to your destination. It may not define your intelligence but it surely defines your gratitude, discipline and obligation towards your work.

I think smart work is the way of doing hard work for Eg. If you are preparing for a certain competitive exam it will be good if you plan your preparation smartly and work harder on it you will definitely succeed but if you only work hard for it without any smart planning than chances for you getting selected will be reduced. So both hard and smart work are inseparable from achieving a target you require both.

Smart Work: Completing your task with best of your quality in less time by working with 100% efficiency & not getting deflected.

Hard work: Doing the thing for a whole day in the name of just exploring without getting to your target.
