Throw away the crutch
A personal testimony -- When my son started High School I was told he would need a para to walk around with him. I asked why and they said because he can't walk up stairs without holding the handrail. If he falls he could be hurt. (He had a very difficult birth and had to have three different therapists all the way through elementary school. We had eliminated the occupational and speech therapists by this time but still he had to have a physical therapist).
So what I did was I took him hiking up the Adirondack mountains. On one mountain he could not make it 200 yards. The very first hill was too icy and hard as he tried he could make it up. So, I took off by belt and tied it to my pack so he could hold onto it and we climbed that mountain that way. It was brutal, slippery, sliding the entire way. You had melt water over ice. But we made it to the top and we made it back down with almost no falls (I was the only one to fall).
After a couple of weeks of this school started and I asked that he be reevaluated. He passed and never had to have a para in high school.

You will still fail. because you can;t no matter how hard you work do it,
Thats why Jesus said we must become poor in spirit
You need to stop thinking so highly of yourself and look at you the way Jesus sees you
