Prioritize what your robot needs to be able to accomplish, and then stick to that priority list as best as possible when designing and fabricating your robot. That's not to say you can't also grab some "low hanging fruit" from your lower priority items, but try to avoid designing around lower priority items. Don't compromise the tasks you NEED to be good at in favor of adding in additional low priority functionality.
