Jennifer Lopez says she works harder than everyone else

Jennifer Lopez works hard for her money. She says she beats the competition not just by working hard but working harder than everyone else. She describes herself as “relentless” when it comes to the way she approaches work.

“My business philosophy is that you just have to work harder than everybody else,” says Lopez during an interview with Variety.

“I think we all think we’re working hard all the time,” she continues. “My kids are like, ‘We know you work hard,’ and I’m like, ‘No, it’s not just that I work hard, it’s that I put in harder work than everybody else. I work harder, and harder, and harder. When everybody is sleeping, I’m doing more. And that’s what it takes to have that kind of success. It’s just a relentless pursuit of creativity.”
