When you speak of "rewriting" your goals, are you suggesting rewriting word-for-word without revision? I review my goals everyday as part of my morning practice, but I rewrite weekly at least once (often more) and I agree with the value of this. You offer some practical tips.

Julie, thank you for your comment. I agree with you that the rewriting not necessarily must be word-for-word. I think that on the way to achieve our goals beyond perseverance is also necessary to be flexible. I focused on the act of writing as a method that allows you to focus your minds on what we want to achieve. Everyone is different and for you just daily review of goals is enough, to not to lose the sight of them. For others it can be vision board or affirmation. The key is to think of your goal, imagine it, act on it and changing the actions depends of the results.
