Have you ever thought what it takes for someone to be more successful than others? What is it that sets apart the life of one from another? Why are some people happier than us and why do some feel succeed more often than we do? More importantly why do people fail?

If we all were to work hard, with the same amount of force and determination, then why is it that some people emerge as victorious while the others don’t? Well, the answer to this lies in the concept of smart-work.

There is as such no definite meaning of what smart-work is. Smart-work is something which cannot be taught, it comes naturally to people. Yet, in one person succeeding and the other failing at life, it is the smart-work which makes all the difference.

We are living in an age when every human is aiming to make it big in life, willing to sleep a few hours less and work a few hours more to make the dream become a reality. While working hard will surely bear you fruits, it is working smart that will eventually make you realise your dreams and goals in a better way. Working smartly means that you are more organised, saving several hours in completing a specific task and doing it more creatively than other. Smart-work gives you the competitive advantage in life. There is no doubt that working hard is an answer to more than half of your life targets, yet it is only when you work smartly that you get to achieve the same goals in a better manner or often bear fruits sweeter than what others get to eat.

Being a smart person is to be someone who can work efficiently enough to complete the same work in a lesser amount of time and through unique means. Smart work cannot be termed to be easy. It requires thirst for creativity and an urge to take varied new routes towards the same goals. Often, it so happens that you come across a person whose working style makes you wonder- ‘Oh! I wish I had done my work in the same manner as he did.’ This exclamation arises from your awakening for someone’s smart-work.

Being smart does not mean that you are work unethically or without following a general code of conduct. Smart work simply means following a more creative and time-saving path to achieve one’s objectives in life. Smart-work always comes with some amount of hard-work. The two concepts have a very blurred line of differentiation. To fulfil your plan and its goal, you need the help of both hard-work and smart-work in your life. Your mind should focus on striking a balance between the two. When you reach a point in your life where you are working well enough to be categorised as a hard working, determined individual and a person who knows the extra-touch or the better-way of doing things, can you claim to have done things smart-enough to be successful.
