Answer: A. Subgoaling

Explanation: Subgoaling is a specific target that leads to the end/ultimate goal, or as it is called, the middle target. There may also be more small / middle targets / goals that lead to the end goal, as is the case in the question posed. There is a determination of the order in which the intermediate goals will be fulfilled, the so-called labelling, which means the planning of the steps, which are in logical order and leading to the end goal. For example, cleaning apartment on a Thursday, preparing dinner on a Friday, and going shopping on a Saturday morning is not a logical order of steps, that is, of medium goals, but the way it is given.
