Entrepreneurs and small business owners are typically buried in demands and obligations. So,learning to say "no" and focus on the right things is critically important.
Vickie Milazzo, a very successful businessman and author of Wicked Success Is Inside Every Woman, has some useful advice that could certainly benefit just about anyone, not just women.
Use your time wisely.(41) ____You have to work hard at them every day, sometimes in very small steps, so you should commit to doing something every day toward your goal and reach it in separate but related stages.
Abandon perfectionism. When you get there, success may not look like what you expected.
(42) ____ You all have your own idea of how success will look and feel when you get there, so your ability to be flexible and adjust your goals could get you to a place of success much earlier than you otherwise might.
(43) ____ If you are struggling to achieve a goal, you cannot learn much from someone else who is struggling to achieve that same goal. Therefore, you should look around for other people who have achieved what you want. In other words, you should find those whose work you admire and model yourself after them.
Keep it fresh. (44) ____ Tap back into the frame of mind you had when you were just starting out. Finding that passion again will often renew your energy and engagement.
Finally, give yourself a break. If you stepped back and looked at your daily routine objective-ly, as if it were happening to your best friend, what would your advice be? Would it be: Slow down? (45) ____ Or spend a few moments enjoying the day?
A.More haste,less speed.
B.Hang on to your dreams.
C.Take a few deep breaths?
D.Do you remember why you wanted the career you have?

参考译文
企业家和小商业主通常淹没在人们的要求和他们的义务中。因此,学会说“不”以及将重点集中在正确的事情上是非常重要的。
薇姬•米拉佐是一位非常成功的商人,同时也是《每个女人都可以成功》的作者。他给出了一些对每个人来说都非常有用的建议,并不仅仅是有关女人的建议。
合理地使用你的时间。(41)你不可能一夜之间实现大目标。你每天都得努力工作,有时只是迈出了很小的一步,所以你应该致力于每天都做一些事向你的目标靠近,通过衔接起来的独立阶段达到目标。
抛弃完美主义。当你真正成功的时候,你会发现成功可能和你想象中的并不一样。(42)所以在努力的过程中要不断地调整自己的预期和对成功的定义。每个人都有自己对于成功的定义和成功以后的感觉,因此你灵活变通以及调整目标的能力能够帮助你比预想的要早日取得成功。
(43)找到成功的人并向他学习、模仿。如果你正在努力达成一个目标,那么从别的那些也正在朝着相同目标努力的人身上你是学不到什么的。因此,你应该找到已经成功达成此目标的人。也就是说,你应该找到那些自己崇拜的人,然后以此为目标激励自己。
保持新鲜感。(44)你还记得当初你为什么想要追求这份事业吗?记住当初刚开始的时候你的心态。重新找回当时的激情能够使你振奋精神,得到鼓舞。
最后,让自己休息一下。如果你能够退后一步,客观地观察一下你的日常生活,就像看待你朋友的生活一样,你会给出什么样的建议呢?会不会是:放慢生活速度?(45)做几个深呼吸?或者是花点时间享受生活?
【精析】本段的第一句话为“Use your time wisely.”,意为“合理地使用你的时间”,说明本段内容和时间有关,综观所有选项,A项和E项所讲的内容都和时间有关,但是根据下一句“You have to work hard at them every day.sometimes in very small steps…”的意思,E项“你不可能一夜之间实现大目标。”更能够起到承上启下的作用,故选E。
