The piece of advice that really got me rethinking how I GM and got me out of the rut of feeling like sessions were me just wrangling my players was:

-Treat the majority of your prepping as fall back, something you can rely on when it comes to it or crosses that bridge. You'll be more apt to follow the flow of your players, and if they cross your plans, then you have something to work with.
