Default I don't think I can do it

I have a few job interviews this week. One place is even already willing to hire me, part time, if I come to training on Thursday.

I badly need a job, but honestly, I'm just starting to feel like I can't do anything. My 7-Eleven job was so bad. The last 3 months of the previous job was the same way. Right now, I just don't think I can get myself to do anything.

Brandon, I know you can do it.
I'm VERY happy you have some opportunities available.
BELIEVE in yourself, and remember attitude is everything.
I know bad past work experiences and let downs can really bring you down, but don't pass up a chance for income.
You need it.
Do it for yourself, and if that isn't enough think of your family and friends who want better for you. (that's helped me quite a bit)
Best of luck to you.

Damnit. In retreospec, I've realized yet another stupid mistake I've made that basically ruled out one part time job I had applied for.

Why do I never think these things through?!?!?!

Brandon, are you sure your mistake is as bad as you think?
Sometimes I think our subconcius tries to make us fail, by scaring us off.
Do your best, and follow up ever lead until the people your applying to tell you no.
If you get a job, rather than worry you'll do badly, just do it.
Even if it only lasts 3 months, its better than nothing, and who knows, this might be the one.

Well, what I did was basically walk away from a job before even interviewing. I figured that since it was only part time there wa no way I could make it work. I told myself when I started my job search that I could try and make two part time jobs work. I don't know what the Hell I was thinking.
