For 10 years I have been following tech but only as a marketer and hobbyist, and never took tech as my career. How relevant is the tech domain for marketers and is there any similar career path of any community member as I have been wondering if the choice I had made is a right one or not.

I have big dreams and I read a lot of Self help books. Though I work tirelessly on things but I often get distracted among multiple projects and eventually none of them brings out substantial result. That's why I took a job to ensure that I am not completely wasted.

I have read the phrase "Connecting the dots backwards" so many times but I am sure that I couldn't get it's meaning correctly. I read it again in "http://www.jonathanfields.com/what-lucky-people-do-differently/" , so please help me in knowing it.

Basic programming is easy but building MVC apps looks complicated. I had been hopping around from Symfony to CakePHP to Ruby on Rails to PHP Basics. I seek help in understanding how to go about developing web apps.
