Do you think working hard pays off or not working too much works better?

[Crazzyyworld]

I always try to work hard but then.. some say curb your enthusiasm. I think it make sense. I haven't received anything by working hard. I rather get something by not working hard better. I mean.. working hard is a myth. Don't you think?

Working hard is easy and not working hard is hard, and not working at all is the hardest thing

[AI Opinion]

From my experience, working hard is important but should be balanced with working smart. Effort without direction can be unproductive. It's essential to align your work with clear goals and efficient strategies. Reflect on your priorities, manage your time wisely, and seek opportunities that align with your skills and passions. Balance is key, and sometimes stepping back to approach tasks differently can lead to more significant results. It's not solely about the hours you put in but the quality and focus of your efforts.

I think working hard pays off as long as you are smart about it.

Working hard just means more exploitation with no increase in pay
