Hard work is basically when extra efforts are put into achieving something. But on the other hand, smart work is accomplishing something by tackling things intelligently and a bit of effort.

Smart work proves to be much more efficient, especially in today's context when the world is moving faster than ever.

Well sir, In my opinion, if a person study day and night uses different books with the different method for solving same problems. It is hard work definitely he will improve his skill and develop knowledge. But smart work is another thing in this if a person uses selected book and solve selected questions that will be enough for his exam and score much more marks from that guy without losing more time and give effective output. In durable time I think this called smart work. Thank you.

Smart work is all about how efficiently you can complete a task in a given time.

If you learn things the hard way, you can easily figure out the areas of improvement to increase efficiency.

Hard work means if you can't achieve your target in minimum time then your effort would be considered as a hard work and smart work means if you achieved your target in minimum time then your effort would be considered as a smart work.

Hard work: More efforts but less work.

Smart work: Fewer efforts but more work.

In my opinion, both are necessary. So I will choose to do hard work in a smarter way.

Hard work is doing more work, i.e. putting more of your efforts and smart work is doing small but in the right direction so that it will provide better and bigger outcomes.
