I think you've gotten some brilliant advice so far.
Add this to the mix:
Limits, all well and good, but in such considerations, do not become bogged down in raw absolute numbers. Depths, times, mph of current, whatever.
Each step in diving, beginning with the pool work in 3 feet of fresh chlorinated heated water, to the sports extreme- If you need an example- diving in 3 m.p.h. current through lava tubes... each step that you challenge your abilities with must be a considered task.
Today, a moored boat dive. Then maybe drift diving. Shore dive? They're all different!
A diver with 400 dives at a resort in the Caribbean an expert? Yes, at that location!
Listen to dive briefings as if your life depended upon it.
It does.
