It can't happen without you!

Dint be under the illusion that your goals will just be achieved. In some rare cases they might but in reality that'd a rare thing.

Which means you have to get off your arse and work towards them. No other way of putting it.

But first you need to set out a realistic timeline to achieve. Make it realistic and to help map out consider the following.

What's your target and what do you need to be successful there?

What skills do you currently have as compared to what you need?

What will it take to plug the skills gap?

Can the learning be as part of the progress or do I need to move sideways to move up?

Who and what do I need to help me?

All of these things need thought through and have timelines attached.

The main thing is being confident of making progress. If you go too fast and don't make the progress you want , it can demotivate. So important thing here is not the urgency but achievement.

Take the time necessary to win rather than rush and delay ultimately achieving!
