That makes me picture someone staying up all night every night, hindering their ability to concentrate and work effectively at all, because working hard is more important than working effectively. Pushing it to a further extreme, maybe they can go out and dig holes and refill them, or move a bunch of heavy rocks from one spot to another across a field and then move them back. They could do this dawn to dusk every day. That's harder work than studying, so why prefer studying?
