Should I be worried about this? Will flight training help me improve these skills? Or should I just consider myself not a good pilot candidate?
Don't worry - plug away at it pass - work hard and retire without any accidents and you will have done what is required

And remember - every day you go into work - hundreds of above average pilots have killed themselves and all their passengers

You will be in good company - 50% of all pilots are below average
