Madrid were left in Barca's slipstream last term as the Nou Camp side claimed the Primera Division, Copa del Rey and Champions League crowns.
Things have changed at the Bernabeu since then, with new president Florentino Perez agreeing deals for Ronaldo, Kaka, Karim Benzema and Raul Albiol.
Ronaldo does not believe Madrid fans should expect too much too soon, despite the influx of talent.
"We are going to take it step by step," he told Spanish daily Marca. "The priority is the league. The Champions League is very nice, but it also depends on luck and the ties that you get.
"It's going to be a difficult mission to get the double, although I think we are going to do well in both.
The 24-year-old, who spent six hugely successful years in England with Manchester United before his world-record £80million switch to Madrid this summer, added: "My hope is to win at Real Madrid everything that I won during my time at Manchester United. With the structure Real Madrid have, this is possible.
"The new players that have arrived must fit in well with those already here so that all together we can win many things at Madrid and make the club a little greater still."
And with two of the best players in the world moving to Madrid, Ronaldo believes the Primera Division now has the edge on the Premier League he has left behind.
"It's going to be a magnificent competition in Spain this year. All the players have a lot of quality and the referees protect the players more."
