My main advice for those who are a younger, a bit aimless and not sure as to what they want to do, would be to get a solid understanding of technology. You can guarantee that nearly all jobs in any capacity will rely on it to some extent.
It's a hugely diverse set of related skills and jobs: development (in many flavours: low-level, dev ops, APIs, front-end, testing automation/QA), product management, design, user experience/user research.
Loads of people come from different and unrelated areas into it, there's a low barrier to entry (you can self-teach) and a huge demand for skills and entry-level jobs about. There are some proper bonkers areas emerging (AI, VR, automation etc.). Lots of different, creative paths can open up for you.
