this thread. If you are interested only in the fat of the thread and the cream of the theme, look no further than this and the second post here.
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?
The essential now to be able to survive challanges in life is to be smart in all means, work smart you can never go rong with that. Working hard is not stretching your full potential in executing things. But working smart take a lot of focus and good strategies in order to be efficient and more productive in achieving better work results.
