Maintain Momentum
During a goal check, you can realize when you are on your way to achieving your goals, and you can take the following steps to maintain momentum;

- Celebrate small every success
- Have regular goal check-ins
Change Direction
If you realize things are not going as per your plans during a goal check, or if your goals have changed, however exciting the idea was, it may be time to change your plans. The best way to reframe or change the direction of your goals is to;
- Figure out why you are unable to achieve your goals to avoid making the same mistakes
- Determine if you are doing it due to desire or from the point of fear.
- Make a pro and cons list to determine if you should move forward or change direction.
- Learn from your obstacles and reframe your goals.
Final Thought
Goal check-ins and small changes can lead to many emotions, from excitement and anticipation to feelings of self-doubt and sometimes failure, but don’t let this stop you. Reflect on your goals and decide on whether you will change your plans or if you will maintain momentum this final quarter.
