Are we using the word "goal" correctly? It seems like goal has become something that you must achieve or else you fail - there's no other option.
Maybe a better word to use is "target," as in, "I am targeting getting 10,000 steps in each day. But if I don't get there today, I can try again tomorrow." You won't always hit the bulls-eye, but you can keep shooting for it.
This negates the power of a streak, but it keeps your objective from becoming legalistic.
(Or maybe I'm just rationalizing the fact that I accidentally missed posting yesterday.)
