You have to look at this long term. And also, if you didn't work so hard, you might be failing in school.
Nobody cares if you got an A in English Lit in college. All that matters is if you graduated with a degree. Why? Because getting a degree meant that you put in the time, work, and effort for 4+ years. I've known a couple of people--bright kids--who were lazy and dropped out of college.
I also knew a couple of guys--very average students in high school--who put in the effort in college and studied hard. They weren't A students, but they got their degrees. One became a lawyer, the other became an engineer.
Just remember, who won the race? The rabbit or the turtle?
I don't understand why hard work doesn't pay off
