you don't "think" about getting into mapping, you just start building stuff, right now. that's it, that's all there is to discipline, none of that "one of these days" shit.
setting deadlines works for some, but I personally think speedmapping is a slaughterhouse of ideas. you'll be left without any by the time you decide to do a "real" map, if that moment ever comes and you don't burn out along the way.
progression from big strokes to little details isn't some mapping invention, it applies to all crafts/artforms. that said, there tends to exist a blockout fetishism that makes no sense for a single hobbyist mapper. do what's practical for you.
