I've been for years trying to focus my mind on learning PHP in-depth and haven't been able to grasp it. For years I've started learning a couple of books and wasn't able to finish them, although I understand most of the basics such as fors, whiles, switch, functions, methods, etc. I can't understand the idea of building the program from 0.
I'm thinking of retaking some books and reading them slowly and in-depth and hopefully grab an idea from there. Any other recommendations? I think I'm ultimately lacking is some motivation, I'm one of those people that love going right to the practice although that's not always the best. I'm worked for several years on linux, apache, servers, etc. but not directly programming any php apps.
Edit: I'm starting to read this book:
