Working smart vs working hard - an ultimate guide

[zarados]

Not everything that is planned to run in accordance with our wishes, it all depends on effort and hard work, because there is no result that betrays the effort and hard work. The thing to remember is do not ever expect an instant result without any effort first. Hard work or smart work must be accompanied by effort, without any effort, there will be no result.

Smart, hard working is the key to success in the Crypto market.

[xandra]

I prefer working smart it is because when you are working smart you knew what is your strenght and you can do your work very well I believe that it will lead to success.

[tegaisaffluent]

Many people work hard, but only a few become really successful. That is because smart work is what makes the difference. From physical to creative work, life management skills, time management skills, understanding the system and the territory you operate in,
knowing what you want, being in the right industry, providing scarce resources to markets with a high demand, looking on the bright side of life, carefully selecting the right opportunities, thinking before acting,
focusing on creating, delivering and capturing value, innovating and being bold, having control, leveraging other people’s time, leveraging other people’s money, standing on the shoulders of giants, being proactive and having emotional control, networking and asking for help, putting yourself first, considering limits, hanging out with the best people possible, building on your strengths, the right timing, knowing when to cut the losses.

Yes it is good to work smart and work hard at the same time, if you will have good planning about investing in bitcoin then you will increase your profit for sure, being smart mean investing on right time when price is low and hold it till it get high without thinking about selling at panic price, when you will feel safe for investment it will develop your interest and you will be able to earn higher with passage of time, but at the same time we should not neglect working hard strategy.

Many people say that you should work hard if you want to succeed in life and rise to riches. I'd rather say that working hard will only make your boss richer, not yourself. On the other hand, there is an age-old adage which says that you should be working smarter, not harder. But working smarter is a vague idea, and I'm interested to hear what people have to say on this topic. As far as I'm concerned, I think that working smart comes down to creating environment where you will have more chances to meet Lady Luck smiling at you, where you will be able to hit a lucky strike because luck plays an ever-important role in our lives. For example, if you want to find a date to have a romantic relationship with or you are looking for a one-night stand only, you will go to a beach or a bar since your chances are higher there, right? The same approach seems to be applicable to work as well. In other words, stick around the places where your chances of success are the highest.

So share your opinions here, guys. What is your practical take on working smart?

You have a point man. Actually I have been hearing this sort of argument even when I was still a child. My father will always tell us to work smart, and make money out of money. And when I grow up, I did work hard, but I later realized that I don't want to be worker that long. I need something to help me became financial stable in the future. So I decided to quit my job, put my offline business. Although I still need to wake up early and oversee everything, I did enjoy what I'm doing and the best thing, I'm the boss. LOL. But there's some kind of element in luck as well. I don't know but I felt that I'm just lucky because suddenly I gain financial freedom and then when I discovered bitcoin, it give me another leeway, more funds for me to channel to my business. So I say that you have to make the right decision + element of luck = success in your life. You have to be in the right place at the right time.

I think you can see those type of similarities in any "evolutionary-like" system that promotes winners and unfortunately makes it tougher for losers.  Capitalism tends to favor and reward people who work hard, but you have to at least acknowledge that certain people have a substantial head start in life compared to others, which makes it almost impossible for others (off spring of 'loser' families) to do anything but "work hard" and are simply too tired to find clever ways to "work smart" instead.

This is one of the best posts I've seen in this topic.

I should say that you have made a very clever observation. I think I should expand on it a little bit further here. The "loser" families are set to produce more losers on average and not because they lack something in their genes (they don't). Rather, they lack in their mentality. When you are raised in a distressing environment, mostly psychological in nature, as opposed to physical (which is not as bad), you won't be able to get out of the limits imposed on you by your upbringing. You are "too tired" because you have been fed up with grim prospects of the future and overall pessimistic outlook since your early childhood (actually, from the cradle), and your thinking itself is depressed and constrained. But when you are depressed, both mentally and psychologically (there's a subtle difference), your only option is to work hard if you don't want to end up under the bridge.

That's why you see trends over family generations of people staying in the same socio-economic class.  Rich people tend to stay rich and vice-versa... sure.  But there is also those rare outliers of people who work their way up in life by figuring out that balance of getting lucky while rigorously working in a much more smarter way.

It takes a tremendous amount of effort and awareness to break out of this loop and change your life dramatically to the better.

[Webetcoins]

Many people working hard to get much money, they have lost all their time for their family by working hard in the company and many people leave their family looking for the job and working hard so far from their family, but the other side have the people have smart working by participated at the bitcoin and cryptocurency, and the can have the earning more than the hard work, so which one you choose for your work.

If we are talking about trading, naturally here working smart will be more effective. The best variant is to get the maximum information about the cryptoworld.

But I believe in a combo of both. One component alone can’t survive for long time where such huge competitions are present. Just see the local market how amazingly so many people are contributing towards something and by competing someone succeeded to grab maximum of money. Same is in the case of bitcoins trading, you have to be smart but hard worker too for better results.

In my view, working hard and working smart are two different animals, which have little in common. It is like a sheep and a wolf. The former is a prey while the latter is a predator. Indeed, a wolf can become a prey too (for example, to a human with a rifle and a wolfhound), but this is not common and not natural. When you work for somebody, it is working hard in general. On the other hand, when people work for you, it is working smart, as simple as it gets. Another option which seems to be beyond this dichotomy is when money works for you. I think this is the best option for most of us as we don't have to bear responsibility before and after anyone, so to speak (which is not the case for a regular business with employers and employees).

I got your point but I believe, in order to be a wolf first some hard work is done. For becoming rich and successful, a person needs to be smart and hard worker at the same time. It is not possible to get fruits without putting any efforts. For example, bill gates is now the second richest guy of the world but he went through hardships that many of us won’t even think about. Then he was a smart person too.

Both aspects are essential in life, working smart means right knowledge of work executed wisely and working hard is a continous execution of work without a trace of laziness, the urge and motivation to work is there all the time, so for me this 2 characteristics of an individual are both very important, and when this is combined together, success in life is very reachable

[kirito1614]

Buckle down with the goal that your chance isn't squandered and that you'll figure out how to additionally enhance your gameplay. After then you have work shrewd with the goal that you'll be up over the opposition. You can buckle down throughout the day ordinary however without an objective or pondering how everything goes you can't advance or get advanced. Both go as an inseparable unit and both are required for progress.

[curry30]

For me is it both I can use,because being smart you do anything,answering any question that you answer it in a simple but full of information,in this season you make smart if you duty have this you don't do anything. Being hard working usually all people do this in their own work,if you are hard working you do your life successful.

[anavir]

in my point of view,this two must go together because even how smart you are but you are lazy nothing will happen.coddos to being a hard working but you are not smart,what ever hard work you will do,at the end of the day you only have just penny in your hand.It is better if you are a hard working and smart,you will have good strategies.That way you will earn good income.

[Hell-raiser]

The truth is that everyone cannot think the same way. If we are all working smart, who is going to end up working hard? It is a way the world has been fashioned and as much as working smart is good, working hard is also good, but it all depends on the level at which we all operate.

Indeed, no one can think in the same way as someone else. But that's why working smart is possible at all in the first place if we think of it as working differently from the rest of the pack, that is more efficiently and effectively. Working hard in the sense it is meant in this thread can provide sustenance for you and your family, but it won't get you ahead of the pack, above the multitude of ordinary people who live paycheck-to-paycheck. In other words, your level of well-being and prosperity doesn't depend very much on how hard you work. It is like the law of diminishing returns squared. Even if you work twice as hard, your achievement will be miserable.

Also, everything in life is all about luck and some have gone down the road of working smart with luck not shining on them. We have to consider that just a few of those smart ones are extremely rich now, while some did not even ask for it, so sometimes, i feel luck and opportunity also come to play like someone rightly said.

I agree that luck plays a far more important role in our lives than most people here assume. However, we are all presented with a solid share of it through our lives. And in the end, it is not so much about the lack of luck as such as about our failure to first recognize it and then use it to our advantage. There is enough luck in the universe for everyone.

So share your opinions here, guys. What is your practical take on working smart?

For me, working smart here in bitcoin is much needed than working hard. Working smart means you are analyzing things carefully before making a move which is very useful here since scammers and frauds are everywhere. Working hard is not bad at all but I think it will end up nonsense if you are going to work hard without using your mind.

[Hell-raiser]

I think you must always try to find position in life where you can have lot of options open, and try to be smart/informed enough to choose the best one it given moment.
But first you must know what you want and be clear in your goals.
When your goals are clear, you won't waste time on unnneccessary things anymore.

It rarely works out perfectly (or anywhere close to perfect) in real life. People have hobbies and they have jobs. Most of the time these are not the same and often not near enough to being even remotely related. And it is not only that. People change as they gain in years and experience just as their views, interests and aspirations do. So even if your goals are crystal clear while your thoughts pristine pure (more or less) at the moment, it doesn't mean a thing. In a few years you may go through a major personality shift, then again and again, and now you no longer know what you want in life.

This is aptly called a life crisis, and it happens not just once in almost everyone's life.

I think smart work is better and healthier than hard work because I think hard work is true you can get a lot of profits and your performance can be maximized but your health will definitely be disrupted so better smart work to maintain your health.

[alroys]

Work smart or Hard work, the answer is hard work in the accompaniment with intelligent mind, that will result in success. but actually smart work is better than hard work, because with Smart work we can earn money by not using so much power. if the name of hard work is certain, time, energy and mind we use it all.

[Telogodok]

some times we have to work hard only like we cannot use automated bots in some typing works. we have to do it by ourselves only

I think more time savings if you work smart You can be able to determine whether it's time to invest or not.
Working smart can save time rather than work hard.

Working hard is very different on working smart. When you are working hard, you are putting all your time and efforts on something without being strategical or without using your mind while when you are working smart, you are not putting much effort but you are using your mind to find easier ways to make a job well done. Working hard is much commended for people here in bitcoin in my opinion.

[Hell-raiser]

I think a lot of people work hard because they don't really know how to work smart. By this I mean that people must learn to do a little research first and then start working. Sometimes people spend a lot of time trying to solve a problem, that was already solved by someone else. Working hard is like needing a wheel and inventing it first, instead of using something that was already created. This way they would be able to do a much better job, if they worked smart. In terms of programming, I've always heard that a lazy programmer is a smart programmer, because he is ok in using what is already available to him, instead of trying to re-create every bit of code. Not talking about stealing here, you should always give credit to what you use.

In my view, a lot of people are just happy with what they already achieved. As the saying goes, if there is a will there is a way, though it is not just about wanting something, you have to be willing to get there and actually do something to that end. Many people are simply stuck in the rut, and they just don't have enough energy to change their ways even if they understand they deserve more than what they've got. Bosses around the world are not fools, and they definitely know how to squeeze the last drop of life out of their staff. They know that when they suck the lifeblood out of their employees, the latter will be too tired and exhausted to think of the ways to improve their lives, which in many cases means kissing them goodbye.

I am sure that it is possible to become successful only having a strategy and strictly observing it. Our life is not only work, but also family, friends, etc. I think that a successful man is one who balances all of these areas.
