How would you know things were getting better?

I came up with a question recently about my finances that had me stumped for two days.
Financial abundance has been an area of my life that hasn't improved much even with many years of self development. Sure I've change careers and my lifestyle is wonderful but in terms of actual balance sheet... not much change. Of course, I have done lots of processes around clearing limiting beliefs, past life vows, languages, incantations, affirmations, you name it.
But here's the thing. If you continue to ask questions like "What are my limiting beliefs around money? What is holding me back? What else do I need to clear?" you can only get more answers like that. These are all problem focused questions.
So I asked myself a solution-focused question: "How would I know, even a little bit, that my financial situation was improving? How would I notice that things were getting better, even just a little bit?"
Sure we are told to have Big Harry Audacious Goals and aim for the moon etc and that is where we might end up. But how would you know you are actually moving in the right direction unless you tell yourself what to look for; what to notice?
Of course, these questions don't only apply to financial goals but to any area of your life.
It took me two days before my brain finally gave over some answers to those questions. So what about you? How do you go with coming up with answers for noticing even a little bit of improvement in the direction of your goals.
