I believe that you are correct.
For the sake of parsing (analysis), let's simplify your sentence:
You should visualize yourself ACHIEVING YOUR GOALS.
Here are some examples of objective complements from a very good book entitled ENGLISH REVIEW GRAMMAR by Walter Kay Smart:
They found the prisoner MISSING.
They kept us WORKING ALL DAY.
We heard the man COMING.
We discovered him MOWING THE LAWN.
