Why Re-evaluate? It stimulates personal perspective and focus, and promotes the achievement of your goals.
It’s extremely rewarding to retrace the path that resulted in a completed goal since goals of all shapes and sizes are good. Even so, we know that it’s one thing to set a goal, yet it’s completely another when you get so caught up in the details that you neglect to review for viable and productive progress.
Periodic reevaluation is the key to increasing your chances for hitting your targets. It’s a great way to improve results and refocus priorities. Doing this will better assure that you keep the initial goal in mind to avoid rabbit trails that take you off course. Or, alternatively, it is the key to changing the course of action if need be.

Hindsight is 20/20
“In hindsight, things are obvious that were not obvious from the outset; one is able to evaluate past choices more clearly than at the time of the choice.”
—Wiktionary
History leaves clues and then repeats itself. Once you have completed a task or finished a longer project, re-evaluation will help you know what you might do differently next time, or predict what may be coming in the future. There are clear patterns to follow—or not!
