Keep updating the cards. They will motivate you to keep going. Your adult-self knows it is a good idea to work your plan. Your child self needs a reason why. As part of your goals program, decide up front how you intend to satisfy the instant gratification needs of your child-self, and then reward yourself as you accomplish your short range goals.
Nothing is carved in marble.
As often as you like, step back and take a look at the big picture. Go ahead, it's your life. You now have a goals program you can use for your personal and professional life, as well as a tool you can use to help your salespeople accomplish more.
