Hardwork: more efforts but less work.

Smart work: fewer efforts but more work.

In my opinion, both are necessary so I will choose to do h/w in a smarter way.

Work is work.

If you want to get ahead in your career you have to put a lot of effort. For days you will be happy for some days you won't. If you want to be an expert in your field you have to spend 10000hr doing the thing again and again with continuous improvement. 10000hr does not joke. You may call this work hard or smart it doesn't matter. Only matters most is that 10khr, if you really want to be an expert.
