I see this big trend nowadays of people celebrating hard work (which I've been a big fan for the past 7 years), yet most HARD WORKING people are BROKE.
Absolutely.
You want to know why?
Hard work in an INEFFICIENT SYSTEM is marginalized and rendered impotent.
I work hard in an EFFICIENT SYSTEM that I built, hence, I get paid a lot more.
Other people work hard in an INEFFICIENT SYSTEM that is ruled by the rat-race.
So their results (and their output) enjoy marginal returns.
"Smart work" = putting yourself in a system that can leverage your hard work.
If you default to "hard work" within the default system, you get default results that applies to the 99%.
Think of it this way...
Put USAIN BOLT on a child's tricycle and suddenly someone who couldn't run 100 meters would beat him in a race!!
Did USAIN lose his speed?
Did USAIN stop working hard?
NO!!
He's been burdened by an inefficient system.
