How your determine what you believe is "the right thing" is by definition an ideology, whether or not it fits or cuts across the ideologies commonly followed by other people.

This is equivocation. There are forms of motivations, intentions and goals—even strong ones—which are non-ideological on a plain understanding of the term. Ideologies arise when deltas between these things become habitual and institutional.
