Usually, you need to give your object(s) more specific properties so that QTP doesn't need to use smart identification to find it.
If you have 2 objects with the same exact properties, QTP won't know which one to pick and will need to invoke smart identification to see which one you wanted.
If you specify a more specific property(s) for the object you want QTP to select, then QTP will know exactly which object to look at without having to invoke smart identification.
What I usually do is when Smart identificaton occurs, I look at the test results and see which property QTP used to identify that object. Then I go to my object repository and assign that property to that particular object so that next time I run the test, smart identification is not needed. This is a simple example but it isn't always that easy.
