“My goal is becoming a doctor” is not correct. It’s incomplete . You have to put a time/date at the end for it to become correct. “My goal is becoming a doctor in a few years”

@Kaychiro "Becoming" sounds awkward because it is future continuous tense, meaning you are still working towards it or are in the process of, unless you add the modifier of an end... as @Daven_Mayeda pointed out. While "to become" is future definative tense, meaning you accomplished it.
