I think the best generalist advice I've heard is:

"When I was 30, I realized that when I was 20 I didn't know shit. Now I'm 40, I realized that when I was 30 I didn't know shit."

It would be interesting to see how many of the above he would revise in ten years time, and also on the other side of the seismic event that is having a child.
