I commend your work ethic but why not use those 32 hours a week to train up on something like coding rather than telling yourself that you arent smart enough? Ive seen people with no background in that learn anyway.

Or maybe plumbing, electrician, etc. I know you said you cant earlier in the topic but have you tried?

I guess it really comes from a sense of low self worth. I'm sure if I applied myself I could probably do something in some sort of maintenance, or electricity, plumbing, etc. But I feel like if I fail I'll feel like a worthless pos, more than I do now anyway.

That and other things hold me back.

This two job gig seems the best way for me to put away some money right now.

If you learn a skill that enables you to work smarter rather than harder, your sense of self worth would probably improve.
