Personally I feel like my personal moat over my friends and peers is a unique combination of my skills (hard and soft), combined with my experience and outlook on life. Even if someone desperately wanted to become "me" (god, I hope not) and even if I gave them an exact blueprint, it's not something that could easily be replicated. So, I'm a little doubtful of generic tips like these. My generic piece of advice: Collect a lot of different experiences, talk to a lot of people, try and fail at different things, and be honest with yourself, your strong-suits and your limitations.
