For we do not need an excuse to sin. We are Slaves to sin. That means we are bound to sin. Sin doesn't make you a bad person, for we all sin. All of the time, even after we are saved. What makes you a person damnable to Hell is not seeking redemption for sin after it was offered.
Step 1: Admit that you're a "sinner" (by which, you mean imperfect human who hasn't always done the right thing, I assume).
Check.
Step 2: Be willing to turn from sin (by which, you mean resolve to do better in the future and set things right where you can, I assume).
Check.
Step 3: Believe that Jesus died on the cross to redeem you by his blood.
You had me. You had me. You lost me.
This.
