In this type of situation, you have to ensure that the trigger to enable NEXT will execute when the user returns to the slide. The best way to do that is with variables and conditions.
I did what you suggested. Disable NEXT at the start and enable it after all required slides were visited. I added variable for the main slide and conditional triggers for the variable at the required slides. However, new problem. When I visited 1 slide, all the other slides became visited.
You've got triggers to change the ovals to Visited based on the mindsetofcoach variable. So as soon as that variable is adjusted to True, the ovals will become Visited when the timeline starts (as per the triggers).
As per the instructions in the link I provided, you should use a separate variable to track completion of each topic. You have 4 topics, so you'll need 4 variables.
Also, you don'tneed triggers to change the state of the clickable objects to Visited. When any object has a Visited state, it will automatically change to Visited when the user clicks it. That programming is built into Storyline.

This post provides the instructions you need:

If you scroll down in the comments, you'll also find a file that demonstrates how this works.
