I was thinking about this topic earlier this week. I think it's really misleading to defend your accomplishments with "hard work", especially given not all "hard work" is the same. I "worked hard" but have gotten a fraction for it than many folks I know. I have also "struggled a lot less" than quite a few folks I know while getting better results. It's ultimately a meaningless dodge.
Maybe success shouldn't need to be defended. I'm not sure.
- mav3rick 7y agoYou can work hard by "banging your head against the door" every minute. That doesn't mean it was the right work. When you say you worked hard or I said I did, there is no context or absolute scale to see what we meant.
- agota 7y agoI think this whole idea of needing to defend your accomplishments is just bizarre.
