anitank:Now, you are mixing it up. Having the choice of being educated is more of a chance than opportunity. Having the right support i.e parents, scholarships, self finance makes it an opportunity. You hear people say, they had the chance to do this, but they could not turn it to an opportunity. [b]An opportunity is a set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something. [/b]So, privilege complements opportunity an it is inherent in opportunity. A privilege is a special right or advantage i.e a circumstance. A chance is a possibility of something happening. There is a possibility of everyone being educated, but we all need an opportunity i.e an advantage i.e scholarship, finance which it is a privilege to some. People don't talk privilege as regards success even tho it helped some because not everyone that is privileged maximises the situation. You see children of rich folks not paying attention in school and many other situation. This is because opportunities come with rewards, privileges don't usually do |

Those who have attained outstanding levels of success don't follow the conventional rules of society of go to school and/or work hard. A different set of rules is followed by the elites and ultra successful people. I did an article (check my signature) questioning this same trend but it got taken down by MODs, because it's better we live in ignorance and penury making it easy for the few elites to manipulate and control all the wealth as they deem fit. Most of us come online to escape the tedium of the life we live. We live in penury because, "we never see past the choices we don't understand." Poverty and lack are diseases curable by and with a consciousness of wealth creation. |

majekdom2: Nice question. If you're working under an enterprise as an employee, you might not really enjoy working smart.in fact, it might not be needed. The only thing that's required is being efficient in whatever you do. When I talk about working hard and working smart, I'm gearing toward business owners who aspires to attain the pinnacle in business. Hardwork is going the extra mile to achieve better result. Smart work is achieving enormous result with little input. This is only possible if the sim is rich with experience and education. |

Finstar:just as I expected... too much talk. you didn't make any sense. I didn't ask for different context.. what is hardwork? What is smart work? Smartwork is just what motivators use in making you people feel happy. They mean both the same thing. Hardwork means effort and endurance, smart work like you said means little effort. Remember that hardwork didn't say the amount of effort to put. You want to achieve enormous result with little input and you think you will not do the "extra" some way. You want a first class certificate and you will not go the extra mile in reading and understanding your courses. How little is the input you can put. Since your smart work is about background, how come the rich and educated don't all have results. How do you expect a poor man to work smart? How come some poor people are doing well? Oga, again, smart work is just another slang of public speakers and motivational speakers. Make una dey use una head, it's not everything you hear you go by! |

majekdom2: This is where you're getting it all wrong Sir. Hardwork deals with going an extra mile, putting in extra effort. Smart work simply has to do with doing something huge but in a simple way. However, it requires you to know the HOW which is where education comes in. If you're talking about the rich and educated, I want you to please redefine what education means. If education to you means SCHOOL, then you've missed the whole point. You can't cram unrealistic theories, facts and figures and expect to turn out rich at the end of the day. The real-world operates on an entirely different model. If you feel you're educated and yet, you still struggle with finance, then you're not financially educated. I'm an entrepreneur and over the years, the difference between a hard worker, a smart worker and a person that couples both have been made distinct. There's hardwork and there's smart work.. If you believe otherwise, it's okay.. Everyone is entitled to his belief. |

Finstar:is there any success without an extra effort. There is no success without hard work and your so called smart work. Getting education is an extra effort to some because they either have to cut spending and spare their time to get that knowledge... to them they are working hard to get smart !Again, they mean the same thing. 1 Like |

majekdom2: I love how you personalified with "THEY" which means it was merely their own definition or perhaps, view which might end up being wrong. A man once said that the problem of man have always been the problem of definition. We might believe in same thing, but use different terms to relate to them. Let's let sleeping dog lie than waste time arguing on something that leads nowhere. Thank You. 1 Like |

Finstar:you assertion that some people work hard and not smart means you had a different undershanding. I only was letting you know smart work is a 'slang' to complement hard work. It does not even exist in dictionary. Adios |

majekdom2: HARD WORK and SMART WORK don't mean the same...You WORK HARD may not necessarily mean you WORK SMART while you WORK SMART means you definitely WORK HARD too. While one may not include the other, the other always includes both. I hope you get me! |
Re: What They Never Told Us About Working Hard In This Present Age by Nobody: 4:13pm On Oct 19, 2017 |
seguugeen:i understand your point. smart work does not exist in the dictionary. Hard work connotes diligence. Whilst smart work means working intelligently. They both mean working to be successful. They both have the same goal. Smart work is a way of telling people to get intelligent with their efforts. It's a slang by motivtional speaker. It cannot replace the place of hard work or being diligent 1 Like |

majekdom2: Even in some years back you cannot find "SMARTPHONE" in the dictionary. As humans progress in evolution and development of our intellectual capacities, new terms are formed and ideas are postulated. Different people sell oranges in the traffic for instance in scorching heat, that is hard work already. While everybody sells the traditional/conventional way, a guy decided to be different by probably sealing his oranges in beautiful nylons and stick a kind of label on them. You don't need any dictionary to tell you this guy is SMART. He works hard like every other guy inside traffic...but his smartness stands him out. So as I said you may work hard while you work smart too but you may not be working smart but only working hard. Invariably everytime you find smartness in a work, it is SMART WORK! If it's just 'typical', my brother! You are WORKING HARD. 1 Like |

princejones: I know u are a winners member....I have stop saying this word to myself. I will just say my case is different only. the rest I will not say.. because if u say what affected other is not permitted to affect me...Are u saying if good things are affecting others or bad things are affecting others...if the later, are u praying that bad thing should be affecting others....and if it is before, are u saying good thing should be affecting others and they are not permitted to affect u? There is no basis for all this statement as a christian. It does not make sense at all saying this a child of God. |
