Hard work or Smart work-Which is important?

Well it goes hand ir hand but for me nothing beats hard work and dedication. Do you agree ?

Combination of both will create a successor. Work smartly in a hard way. When you are presented with the work, find the smartest solution to the work, and that by itself is working hard, to get a smart solution. Smartness in work will save finances and effort.

I had a fulfilling career. Looking back, I can say it was due to hard work combined with total involvement and day-to-day planning - siva

Work smart not work hard. Work the smart way to success

I think smartwork is the one that will take us to the next level.

They work hand in hand but they say smart is better.

Baby steps is the way to go. Japanese call it kaizen, and it implies just small incremental changes. Try to save $2-3 a day, or learn a couple of words. When you do something over and over again, you'll choose the more economical form of it, automatically. So do not worry about being effective, it will come with time. The issue for working hard, or for setting high goals like losing 20 pound or saving $30,000 in one year is that they are so demotivating. In general just try to do the minimum amount of work for reaching your goal. Just jot down on your calendar that you will work out 5 minutes, or learn during 10. You'll see how effective this is against procrastination

Basically, it depends on what work you are more comfortable with....If you think you have the qualities of a hard worker then do hard work.,,If you're smart then do smart works,,,If you have both, then success is just a step away...
