It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end

Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. If today you have no time, it means tomorrow you'll be too tired and the next day you'll be something else.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.
