Smart Work

Do you work hard or do you work smart?

By Skyler SaundersPublished 8 years ago 1 min read

The will to work is

Paramount. Whether

You sweep the streets or

Manage trillions of

Dollars in a firm,

You earn your keep by

Producing. The best

Ones make the most of

What their mind allows.

Blue collar, or white

Collar, or something

New, it makes no sense

To separate these

People. They each show

Smart work as it is

Personified. Now,

We must recognize

That the pyramid

Of ability

Favors the most fit

In mind, not muscle.

The thought put behind

Lifting a stone is

Incomparable

To signing ninety

Year leases for the

Use of skyscrapers.

May the mind be loosed.
