Start with Why.
If you have some idea for a goal, you should write down the reason you want it.
Frameworks that are useful for product management and communication are useful for personal-product management and communication-to-yourself:

It is also often helpful to write down your worries and fears. Putting worries into words gives you power over them and helps you realize that you can build something overcome them. Fear-setting is one of the psychological benefits of Test Driven Development.
Note that holding thoughts about your motivations and worries in your working memory can be highly psychologically uncomfortable. Your impulse in response to this discomfort might be to get on reddit. For this reason, you might want to do this thinking by taking a paper notebook to the park or by talking with a friend you trust.
The result of this will be that when you re-examine your goal, you can see if you still think it aligns with your "why".
