But while the idea of making and completing goals is a simple one to grasp, what about the actual details of how you will make it all happen? You’ve decided what your goals are. You’re set on completing them. You may face any number of challenges along the way: unexpected delays, unforeseen crises, and more. You may experience personal discouragement, but don’t let it define your progress. If you’re uncertain about what to do next, or feel discouraged, now is the time to change your focus. There are four steps you can take to accomplish your goals—the Four Rs. - **Remember** what your goals are. Clarity equals confidence. The more you know, the more  confident you can become in completing your goals. - **Remind** yourself why completing your goals is important. How is your goal valuable to you, your  organization, or others? Understanding the importance of your goals can help motivate yourself  to reach them. - **Review** your goals at regular intervals, preferably every day. Don’t tell yourself “When I have  time” or “When I’m not too busy.” Study your progress when you complete each step of your  goal, to determine what you can improve upon. And review everything you have done upon completing a goal. Focusing on your progress will make each goal’s completion all the more  satisfying. Even the small gesture of crossing an item off your to-do list feels good. - **Refresh** with new goals for continued success. Take a moment to enjoy the feeling of   accomplishment, and move on to the next goal. There is always more we can do. There they are: four steps to follow as you select and complete your goals. Keep these in mind when you are completing future endeavors.
