Why should you ‘work smart’ rather than ‘work hard’?

  1. Manage your energy and time. Have an inventory check of your daily energy and time. If you know when you have high energy and where your time goes, you can work smarter.
  2. Practice deep work. Your productivity does not equate to the amount of time you’ve spent working. It actually lies with spending ‘focused’ and ‘undisturbed’ time to do a certain task.
  3. Delegate tasks to other people. It will not harm you if you learn how to delegate tasks to your colleagues, especially if they’re more familiar with the tasks at hand.
  4. Automate repetitive tasks. Nowadays, there are a lot of online tools which you can use to automate tasks and also avoid any human errors.
