My haphazard curiosity and my long-term goal

What does curiosity, my primary motivation to learn and know things have to do with a long span goal like yearly one? My curiosity is often haphazard and moving one thing to another, instead of just focusing on one thing.

I encountered this challenge after I watched a message from the president of my company.

One way may be change my way of thinking, feeling and acting, to try hard to think of a long term goal, giving up my old way of behavior, which is really stressful.

For better mental hygiene, I come to know I need to find some relations between my way of find things interesting and the way, as the president has just put, to set a long-term goal.

Take web coding and programing as an example. I'm really enjoying to learn the basics and fundamentals of specifications of the languages which are related to web sites.
Giving up this curiosity totally isn't a very good idea because by giving up what I enjoy to learn or acquire skills, I won't have any power in the future to help someone with someone after all. I'm likely to help people because I'm confident of myself in some way, and knowing a lot about a particular subject help me want to contribute to the field.

Meanwhile to set goal to do something for particular customers may be a little bit far-fetched.
The feasible way to achieve the goal to contribute in what I'm good at to a certain degree is to show that I'm potential to do some work or create something.

Here, in web coding and programing, I'm thinking that I'll be able to prepare a few works as my portfolio. This is one solution between my haphazard curiosity and setting my long-term goal.
