What are the odds of getting fired as an analyst?

Just started my analyst stint at a BB around the West Coast. Im hardworking but not super smart. What should I do to avoid getting fired? Not sure if hardworking is good enough for this Investment banking industry. Any seniors in Investment banking can give me some advice?
