Telling someone to “work smarter” is useless because it assumes they already know what smarter looks like. If they did, they’d be doing it.
“Work smarter, not harder” is often framed as the opposite of hard work, but working smart is itself a derivative of hard work. You have to work hard to figure out what working smart means.
It’s like a chess master spotting the best move instantly; it looks like working smart, but it’s built on thousands of hours of working hard to earn that intuition.
What looks like working smarter is often just contextual insights uncovered through deep, sustained effort that others would find unreasonable.
I kid you not, bought a single Rs 70 lassi today and the guy said you need to provide your phone number so we can send you a bill — else no bill for you.

A cup needs to be made once but washed a 1000 times.
We really don’t have any regard for maintenance or care in our modern civilisation.

I see these days the people with placards at airports that go something like "Welcome to Mumbai, John" have all but disappeared (I understand why).... I just kinda miss seeing that.
We have all become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous deeds are like a polluted garment. We all fade like a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
- Isiah 64:6
And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul;
rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy
both soul and body in Gehenna.
- Matthew 10:28
