My best advice is to play up what you’re good at instead of sitting around criticizing yourself for all the things you don’t do well.

About the Quote
It's true that we all have out flaws, weaknesses, and foibles. It's true that other people know we have those. So it just makes sense for us to not dwell on out negatives and to focus on our plusses and positives.
If we're better at working with scripted material than we are at improvisation, then we focus on activities which let us plan and prepare and practice ahead of time. If we're better at improvisational acticvities, then we focus on activities which let us operate in a stream of consciousness or which let us just wing it.
No matter if we're like Marcus Aurelius, Warren Buffett, Jonathan Winters, or even Homer Simpson, we each have 24 hours in each day we're alive. This means we need to maximize our time so that we can get more out of life. That means we don't waste time beating ourselves over the head for our mistakes or weaknesses. Stuff happens, so we own it, deal with it, then move on in order to keep moving forward to where we want to be.

Some (More) Information about Barbara Corcoran
Lewis Howes continues his interview with Barbara Corcoran. One bit of advice they discuss is finding people who will sign up for the business. In this context, they aren't talking about finding customers but rather partners who know what they're getting into.
It's similar to an armed forces family: one spouse gets deployed to a duty station or to a theater of operations, and the other spouse remains home to care for the household and the family which stayed behind. This spouse must realize that the life of someone in the military is one where uprooting families is part of the deal, along with months or even years being separated. Without this understanding by the spouse who stays behind, the marriage is going to fail when expections are not met.
In the same way, the spouse or partner of an entrepreneur must know what's involved in the relationship with an entrepreneur. It could involve working insane hours, or time away from home, or dealing with the distasteful aspects of operating a buinsess such as interacting with the authorities.
