I am a javascript/java developer. But, I like thinking in terms of the underlying algorithm. E.g if I am doing a sort, I will like to think where the sorting should be done (javascript, java or sql) and what underlying sorting mechanism are being used. It's not necessary but a good skill to have. If you start just thinking about the underlying algorithm associated with a data structure/operations on the data structure and then start digging deeper, I think you will be able to hone your skills.
