1. The act of bettering ones self through pure motivation, dedication and execution, often in the face of difficult, unfair and insurmountable circumstances that an individual has been placed in due to living in a hostile/unfriendly/tough environment, where the vast majority of the accompanying population will live as disappointments and failures until the day they die.
:- This life may be deemed "tough" if said person has experienced socio-economic difficulties (with or without) health-related misfortunes along with loss/death/abandonment from a biological Parent or Relative. In short, if you have ever experienced any difficulty in your life and still find the power (within yourself) to push forward for the greater good, you are actively participating in "Hood Work".
