You probably don't need to deprogram anything.

A problem that you are motivated to solve is a good idea. Because it provides clear motivation. If such a thing isn't forthcoming, maybe think of understanding the concepts as the problem to solve (which is pretty wishy-washy, but it is likely going to be a difficult task if it isn't providing any satisfaction).
