Hard Work

Working hard is greatly valued in society, and from childhood, we’re told that if we work hard, we’ll succeed. This is sometimes debated, with many advocating ways to work smarter rather than harder, but others still advocate hard work as a key ingredient in success. But what does hard work really mean? For some, it means putting in extra hours, while for others, it’s working more intensely. The truth is that it’s appropriate to use variations on the definition of hard work to fit the person and the goal.
