It does unless you go crazy on it and it puts you in a wheelchair. If your particular question is about studying, then by all means it does pay off. When you start treating your education as a job, you'll see that it goes much easier that way, especially if you excell at it and actually start getting paid (in terms of bursaries and scholarships). I've been a lazy D- student, not caring much about why did I come to the university, and just had fun all around. Well, I got kicked out, which made me look at my life again and see that without education there's really no good future. So, I did some things to myself, so that now I'm between A and A+ student. I realized one most important thing as I see it - if you're working hard on something, it will pay off not only where you want it to pay off but also in the other areas, where you don't even realize now you need help. Beside, once you get into the 'working condition' and it becomes part of your life, you won't even notice it as a work, just a way of life. You know that guy, Anthony Robbins? He basically said that to overcome your laziness and all your bad habits, you just gotta replace them with the good habits. And when that happens, it'll be really hard for you not to work, you'll just feel uncomfortable and unnatural. However, to get to that condition, you first gotta create a new habit, which will take you a few months to get used to. But after that.... 'The roots of education are bitter but the fruit is sweet'.

I am a senior in high school. I am ranked within the ten highest GPA's in my school. I would probably be one of the kids getting acceptance letters from UC Berkeley if I applied. I have worked very hard taking many AP and honors courses trying to be in the top ten so that I could get into a good UC school. However, my parents could never afford to send me away for college because I have two younger brothers who are also going to be going to college in the next four years. I can't get any scholarships based on financial need because my parents make over $100,000 combined. Next year I will be going to a California State School rather than a University of California. All of my hard work has not paid off in the way that I was hoping that it would. Instead the only thing I am able to walk away with is the knowledge that I studied harder and partied less than the 500 kids that I am graduating with.

Well let me put it to you like this. Do you see a horse running the country? No. In fact it seems the best paying jobs are the ones where you hardly work at all actually. The only thing working all those long hard hours at school or your job is going to surely accomplish is making you old. What you have to do is work smart and keep your eyes open for opportunities.

Hard work doesn't always pay off, but the opposite is almost always true. People who get what they want in life have worked hard in the right direction.

Yes!
But not all hard works
the same should be directed properly
if you place a mud pot not up-right and rigorously pouring water without any rest means you are doing hard work but a waste.
only THE INTELLIGENT HARD WORK pay off
all the best

Yes, it has paid off for me.........I worked hard to get my engineering degree, I work many hours at my job and I have worked hard in establishing in my children that the world is NOT a hateful place, that there are loving and kind people still out there.....My hard work has paid off..................

Absolutely, you may not think so at that time but in the long run you will. Say for instance you have a job that you hate but you can't quite. Every thing you learn from that job even if you don't realize it you will carry on to the next job you have and do even better.

Sure it does. You learn lots of things, and get a reputation as a hard worker.
