Why you should prioritize smart work instead of hard work a lesson from the rich

[Fortify]

Smart work is a strategic and efficient approach in execution of jobs which is more concerned about maximizing efficient skills intelligent and untraditional ways of achieving task considered tidious with much productivity and achieving goals with less effort,  It involves prioritizing tasks based on impact,smart work entails that doing things differently from the way others have been doing it smart work involves one bringing in innovation and the ability to organize others for the purpose of working for you in achieving greater success rate in completing tasks that ordinary will take a lot of time in achieving.


Have you ever wondered why the people who works the highest in companies and establishment goes home with only monthly payments while the CEO of the company who organize and direct the workers sitting in his office gets richer from the sweat of the workers, have you not wondered why the wheel barrow pushers in the market who use their strengths in working every day are not the richest what about those who work in the mines , the difference between the rich and the poor lies in how they work one is more concerned about using his strengths in working for the purpose of salary while the other the is concerned about bringing innovations skills in achieving task to be done in less time and easier.Hard work doesn't make you rich it can only pay you but smart work is what makes people rich

Remember the billionaires of the world are not the most hard working people of the world but are the most smartest people who has worked smartly in acquiring such fortune in life

There are people who are desperate to learn more every day and there are people who get comfortable in their little bubble. Always win to be in the first category. The world is always changing around us, if you are in tech for example - you definitely have to stay up to date with the latest software otherwise you end up exposed to security exploits or what you are using simply becomes unsupported by the developer. If you do not retrain yourself constantly, you are going to have a weak CV which will handicap you in the job market and one of the best ways to work yourself up the salary ladder is to move jobs. To be smart you always have to evolve your skills and then you can apply them in clever ways.

For me working smartly is good, I come to understand that some people misinterprete and misunderstand the general saying that hard work pays, when it comes to this saying it doesn't generally mean that everything you do once you are hardworking without being smart you will grow financially, I think this is idea isn't inline with this saying, although one must start from somewhere but must also identifying area that could be beneficial to them in the long run and work towards it, we must learn how not to work blindly in the name of working hard, the instances and the examples you have is very good, for me, I think life is plan, one must be strategic in whatever they are doing, you must have foresight to grow financially, in conclusion your financial growth as a person depends on your IQ not necessarily hard work.

You can always combine both of those, nobody says that you have to do just one of them, you can always do both of them without much issues. I have done it very much so, I have worked hard and smart many times before. I do freelance work and in my work, I try to limit my hours by putting myself time table, and I stick to it, that way I do a lot of work in short span of time if I am good, that is why it's always good whenever my days are normal and I can do my job.

Sometimes life happens, and we end up with doing something else, so I end up not working good enough, but on normal days, I work hard and smart together. Always find the best way to work too, I arranged it in a way where I do my job in a great way, easy, and then send my job, so efficiency is important too.

Yes, it is true that working smart is better in terms of the income earned, because it is easier to reach or reach many people by utilizing the internet. But working hard is also highly appreciated because indirectly you have tried to achieve it continuously,the difference between the two lies in working smart prioritizing the intelligence shown rather than working hard which of course takes a long time when you want to achieve it.

I think you still miss the point. "Working smart" doesn't mean you're not working hard. You're also working hard, but doing it smartly to get better results. Most times, when people say "hard work," they subconsciously think about manual jobs or blue-collar jobs, which is not always the case. You can work hard in a white-collar job.

You need to work hard and smart, but you cannot differentiate them in this context. The billionaires and millionaires you see today worked hard. They worked smart, but they also worked hard. So nobody is saying you shouldn't work hard, but do so smartly so you can get better results.

Indeed wealth is not measured or determined by those that work hard but smart and action takers,  infact if you don't find a way to earn money while you are sleeping you will work until you die, those Billionaires you know today are smart thinkers, they create job whereas others work for them and they get richer while paying those that works very hard for them just peanut. What differentiate two hard working persons, where the other gets richer and the other one is not, is that there's something differently this other guy is doing which is smarter than the other guys way of doing same business.

Not trying to say what you said isn't right, hypothetically that's how weight is been viewed by many but it's an ideal way. I like it to do things in a realistic way in the sense that when you want to take that part, you will have confidence in the things you are doing. I mean, how can you do all of this when you don't even have what to are doing to be a smart work person, if you are not holding Bitcoin in this forum I don't think there is anyone here working as a smart person, it's all hard work.

Dream big but if it's hardwork that is putting something on your table, make it work it. We don't have to make things inspirational, most reach people don't have that time to give you the selling points to make wealth. No person in this life will ever share you what road they used with honesty to become rich person, they don't want no competitors but we do this comparisons every day like it's young to change anything. Well, dream big but work harder.

Let's leave this talk of hardwork and smartwork.

Anyone whom is legitimately rich worked really hard for it. The so called smart work is just a fancy term for today's generation. Warren Buffett and the billionaires you can name spend more hours working than anyone else.

In the room, they are the hardest workers.

I agree with working hard for white collar, because I am someone who works on my pc everyday, and I work until my pc can't even handle it anymore. My last PC, which took years to break, ended up basically unfixable before I had to give it up, took me a lot of money and time to fix it, but I did manage to get a new one, and it was a bad period for me but it shows that my "resource" for working is just my pc, and I work it so much that it ends up with literally crashing and not being able to fix.

Maybe it is not a shovel, maybe it is not a screwdriver, it's a PC, but it's still my item that I use at work. And I still work 8 to 10 hours a day, is that not hard work? Not like I watch tv while working, I work really hard for 8 to 10 hours every single day except weekends, that's hard work.

yes i completely agree with you on this, i even made a reference sometime ago about this working smart vs hard. in that statement i said we have physical and mental hard work. the poor work more of physical hard work why the rich work hard mentally. the mental hard work is sometime referred to as smart work because it is done without physical strength. but the fact is that not all people will agree to that except for those that have the same knowledge. there is no way we can completely remove hard work from a rich man story because the hard work they do in silent is the product of there cleverness in public. what i mean is the quote that says 'work hard in silence, let your success speak for you' this denotes that hard work plays a role in whatever we do. hard work comes in different forms, patience, resilience, consistency, determination, focus etc, all this are factor of success and a hard working person must experience it to succeed.

The glorification of "making money while you sleep" usually ignores the backstory. Nobody arrives by grind alone. Information, money, social networks, even personal qualities all help to define who can really get off the hamster wheel. Two hard workers, two outcomes. But what is rarely admitted is the compounding effect of starting position, opportunity density, and even emotional bandwidth to take risks. The idea that action is sufficient is a polite illusion; resilience is coded by context, not alone character.

If smarter just means optimally exploiting asymmetries, maybe we are measuring intelligence all wrong. Why do we hunt personal solutions for system results? At what point does being smart just become permission to look away from the rules themselves?

One good attribute that starts working has is that it enhances productivity and make an individual to always be calculative and focus on getting one target goals done smart work makes people to been more results oriented rather than just doing job to be get paid smart work is taking work to the next level for results to come


There are allot of employees that are just working for salary because they don't understand why they are in that organization that they find themselves most workers even complain about work loard this will not happen if they apply smart work in what they do at work

We are quick to make people who do common jobs to put food on the table but do you know that averagely, people that are rich aren't even famous and doesn't even make forb list because they protect their privacy to the core. Some people still has this generational wealth in gold that no government even know nothing about and, it's because they don't want anyone in their business, you don't have to look rich or make it public for people to know you are wealthy and that's brings me back then this thread again that if you are coming from a low background, the chance of you making it will be very had as wealthy person.

If you look at the world today, how many wealthy people do we have that doesn't have support of the government, we have more wealthy people that are dirty than the ones that are really genuine on the businesses they does. Wealth comes with a cost and the cost is most often the bad things, only few self made billionaires and millionaires aren't dirty, majority are dirty.
