I struggle with this as well. I came across this on page 13 after opening 14 tabs on 14 different topics, so I wouldn't really trust my advice on this topic.
One thing I'm going to try is to switch back and forth between project mode and explore mode for fixed lengths of time. I'm not sure about the right lengths yet but the idea would be to have two weeks (or a month or whatever) where I let myself explore aimlessly, and then two weeks where I work on a specific personal project with specific goals.
I think I'd feel better for having accomplished some of the things I'd like to do, while hopefully not fighting too much against my own personality. Ideally I'll get into a good cycle where I am able to take the things I discover in explore mode and put them into practice in project mode. No idea if this will work though.
