The age old philosophy is ‘There is no substitute of Hard Work’. But now-a-days the professional buzz word is ‘Smart Work’. If there is no substitute of ‘Hard Work’ then how ‘Smart Work’ is superior to or different from ‘Hard Work’.
Dear Punia
Excellent question. In the current world of technology, innovation and competition, integration of innovation and information to your work is what most people refer as "smart work". Working hard on "smart work" will get the success in any field. Since one can not master all technologies and innovation, collaboration is also part of "smart work"

Einstein supposedly said: 'If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.' Personally I like breaking down a problem in many smaller ones and solve then oneafter another.
"If there is no substitute of ‘Hard Work’ then how ‘Smart Work’ is superior to or different from ‘Hard Work’."
Saying this is similar as saying: "When there is no way to go upstairs, then how is going downstairs superior or different from going upstairs?" Well... to me it doesn't seem to be a logical statement!
Definitely smart work is superior than hard work as smart work encompasses the use of technology along with hard work. Technology increases the speed of hard work. Use of technology increases the speed of work.
Think "hard work" can be divided into 2 variants. The first one we can delegate, second one we need to instill within ourselves in order to continue "smart work"
For the first one, hard work is analogous to "doing the things right" whereas smart work is similar to "doing the right things". With the advancement of tools / technologies and processes, we / people should focus on smart work. Let the tools & processes help us on the hard work.
However, we should inculcate 2nd type of "hard work" which is putting tireless effort fueled with passion & perseverance to see, think & do things differently / out of the box so that smart work continue to persist.
