Work hard, and then visualize your goal already achieved every night...the universe will connect you to the right people, circumstances, or events. That's the secret. 2 Likes |

Hardwork does not determine success. I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.Romans 9:15 and The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all:Eccle 9:11 |

You are mixing things up because you didn't think deep and perhaps thought success will fall on you from the moon like that. There is no single lie in what they told you. Having connections and a network of people is all part of the "hardwork" and working smart! How easy is it to connect with someone... do you just make friends, yes you can make friends easily with riffs but not easily with individuals you will benefit from. It's a whole lot of hardwork connecting with the right people to help in your career or business. Point is, life isn't a easy or a bed of roses like many see it. Whilst some people believe in luck.. check well, they were prepared for that opportunity plus their hardwork. In my little experience with life, I found out many youth are unprepared, lack information and the network to possibly help them. In my own experience, I didn't even have someone to tell me about life neither was I smart about learning about the experiences of people around me, so, I had to learn from my own mistakes and experiences. Which someway, keeps one on the slow lane. At the moment, that is past, I have learnt to take a cue from the experiences of people around me and also, be always prepared and informed. So yes, whatever you were told is the simple truth! 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Truth is; 'working hard' is a misplaced and archaic phrase for this generation. We are in the era of 'thinking hard' 1 Like |

grossintel:you people misunderstand what connection is all about!!! An applicant who has got an internal referral is likely to given an offer compared to one that has none. If they have equal performance. Sometimes, once there is a referral, the position/ opportunity will be closed. It happens everywhere. https://www.nairaland.com/4068336/behind-scenes-dont-bother-applying |

You put in a good word brother. To add, all failure is failure to adapt. People who complain a lot are those struggling to adapt. In Nigeria, different rules apply...ways to network, look for jobs, get appointments etc The problem is that we learn western methods through books. Bill Gates or Zuckerberg example does not and cannot apply in Nigeria, not yet at least. So study Bill Gates all you want, you're not going to thrive in the Nigerian environment and then one starts complaining. majekdom2: 1 Like |

Finstar:what is hardwork and what is smart work? They mean both the same thing! Hardwork was used basically in the industrial age, where you have to use agility, power and thinking to perform tasks. Smart work is for the technological age where basically it is more of "critical" thinking. The thing is your brain must be working 100 percent in both situations. Show me a hardworker that isn't working smart, show me a smartworker that isn't working hard! 2 Likes |

I hv been thought & mentored that work hard,one day you will be successful. but now being a victim of hard work, I now know the truth. it's not by working hard you get successful, it's by consistently doing wht ever you do in a good spirit & positive mentality. in working hard,you only kill your body & mind for somebody's profit(ask those that dig the underground cable for Mtn or a secretary of a private own company). the truth is,laziness of any form is not good,but be wise in every thing you are doing. learn & study about ur field of profession, be smart on implementing things you learn & trust God for breakthrough in ur work etc,and the rest will be history 2 Likes |

majekdom2: Wrong my dear. Privilege plays a better role than opportunity. If, let's say you got an opportunity to further your education abroad, maybe through an online application you did.....but you don't have the privileges like the finances for visa, ticket, school fees,accommodation etc; no sponsor/benefactor or at least any means that'd make your stay comfortable throughout your education, do you think that opportunity would still play out? I saw a lot of students during my University days who had to defer their admission because their parents couldn't come up with the tuition. They had the opportunity but didn't have the privilege at the time. So many other instances, but in all we need to believe and trust in the process that someday all that hardwork would pay off. |

majekdom2: There are lots of hard workers that are not working smart.. There are also lot of smart workers that are not working hard. In this age, to stand out, you've to effortlessly couple the two to witness an enormous result. Hardwork doesn't necessarily mean lifting weights and sweating under the sun.. If that is your definition of hardwork, then it's highly flawed. |
