GMAT新黄金80题及范文(二)f

29. “Too many people think only about getting results. The key to success, however, is to focus on the specific task at hand and not to worry about results.”
“太多的人只想到得到结果。成功的关键是注意手边的特定事情而不担心结果。” 
你怎么看这句建议的意思，总的来说，你认为它值得遵守吗？从你自身的经验，观察和阅读给出相关的原因and/or例子来支持你的观点。
1.       只想到结果的人而不注意手边的事情的人往往因为太迫切的期待结果而不屑于把手边看似琐碎的小事做好.事实上每一个目标的达成都是需要无数这样的事情集合在一起才可以达成的.
2.       同样的只注意手边的事情也是不可取的.因为一直这样就缺少了高屋建瓴的技能往往会过分注意细节而忽略了从整体上的把握.每一件事情就都变成是在孤立的完成而不是在为一个核心pivotal的目标而服务这样会忽略了重点降低效率.

View1: without achievements of specific tasks there will be no base for final results. 
View2: however, without a specific ideal destination, efforts will find no way to go.
 
This advice means fundamentally that if we focus our attention on the details of a project rather than on the end product (最后产物，最终产品), the result will be better than if we proceed the other way around (adv. 从相反方向). Admittedly, this advice has some merit; by focusing on the details at hand one is less likely to become discouraged by the daunting or overwhelming tasks ahead in an ambitious project. Otherwise, however, I think this advice is poor,
The central problem with this advice is that focusing attention completely on the task at hand without reference to how that task is related to the end product would be virtually impossible to do. The reason for this is simple. Without some reference to a goal or a result we would have no idea of what task to perform in the first place. As a result, the various tasks we engage in would be somewhat random and, in turn, no matter how diligent and careful we were in performing them the likelihood of producing worthwhile or successful end products would be minimal.
To ensure good results, one should instead take a balanced approach to the task at hand (adv. 在手边, 在附近, 即将到来). By a balanced approach I mean paying attention to both the desired result and the specific tasks that are required to achieve it. House building provides a good example of this approach. The house plan not only contains a rendering¹¹ of the finished product but also contains detailed¹² drawings and descriptions of each of the specific components¹³ required to ensure a successful result. Moreover, the order of the tasks is determined¹⁴ with reference to this result. In my estimation, virtually all successful projects proceed in the fashion illustrated¹⁵ in this example.
In sum, I don’t think that the advice offered in the statement is worth following. In my view, following this advice is more likely to produce unsuccessful results than successful ones.
