My children and I were setting goals to achieve in this new year. I ended up saying how they wanted to try “keeping a diary” etc. My children are 11yrs and 8yrs. How do I encourage them to set a goal without forcing or being to “mummy” about it.?

I’m in high school, Freshman almost sophomore.
I need help setting goals and most importantly, accomplishing them.
I can set goals, but i never go all the way though with them, for example, for the past 3 years in Track i told myself that i am going to be one of the top long-jumpers in the team, i said that i was gonna be one of the coaches pick because i try my best all the time during practices… I kept this in my mind for the first week or 2 and i felt really good, and i was doing really good. but then gradually i stopped trying until the point where i just sucked and didnt get any better, and if anything, got worse. I just gave up.
Well this summer i want that all to change, i want to be in great shape for this XC season and into Track. My goal is also to jump a 16 long jump. Right now i have that motivation as i always do when i start something new, but i am really worried that i am going to lose that, what can i do to prevent me from giving up?
