Good advice in general - talk about what you've DONE. Not what you're going to do. Like it.
For better or worse some people just feel you're preaching to them - telling them how to live their life, not that you're coming from a place of compassion or concern.
That said, there are plenty of people out there who have walked the path you're on now. Seek them out. Get them to talk about what they've done too! :P
