I found this post on LoseIt, a Subreddit on Reddit (a really helpful place for anyone trying to lose weight, btw) and I just loved the idea of the 3-tiered goals, aswell as the other things she, the OP, wrote in it. So I thought I'd share it with you, maybe it's of help for someone else, too 
Here's an excerpt:
On many of my previous attempts to lose weight I had found myself getting demotivated, or failing for a day or a week and falling into a spiral of self-loathing and eating my feelings and all sorts of crappy practices that would ultimately result in never losing weight. So to combat this, I set myself 3-tiered goals for each area I wanted to improve. The bottom tier had to be something I already did regularly or almost-regularly, it had to be a really low bar that I could easily reach even on crappy days. The top tier had to be within reach, but more difficult. As I consistently hit the middle or top tiers of whatever area or goals, and once I felt confident that the middle-tier had--through practice--become my bottom-tier, I moved my goal posts and set a new top-tiered goal and aimed at the middle again.
The whole post.
