We’ve all heard the saying, “don’t work harder, work smarter” but is that really the message we send to the people we work with? We set artificial goals whether they make sense or not, when things go wrong we look for someone to blame, and we seem to have a hard time taking responsibility for what happens in our lives.
The problem we have in our society is that we really believe that working harder is the answer to most questions. When someone works smarter we often will say their success is luck.
