Measurement of task progress through explicit, actionable milestones is critical for robust robotic manipulation. This progress awareness enables a model to ground its current task status, anticipate verifiable intermediate states, and detect and recover from failures when progress stalls. To embody this capability, we introduce \textbf{S}ee, \textbf{P}lan, \textbf{R}ewind (SPR), a progress-aware vision-language-action framework that dynamically grounds language instructions into a sequence of spatial subgoals. SPR operates through a continuous core cycle, Seeing the current state and upcoming milestone, Planning a trajectory towards the next 2D waypoint, and Rewinding to a recoverable state upon failure by monitoring progress against the expected sequence. This closed-loop approach enables robust error correction without requiring additional training data or auxiliary models. Extensive experiments demonstrate the framework's effectiveness, generalization and robustness: SPR outperforms the MolmoAct baseline by 5\% on the LIBERO benchmark. On the challenging LIBERO-Plus benchmark with unseen instructions and initial states, SPR achieves state-of-the-art robustness with the smallest performance drop, surpassing OpenVLA-OFT and UniVLA, demonstrating superior out-of-distribution robustness.
