because we are more than just a body. we have a spirit or soul, or whatever you want to call it. that part of us wants to do what is best (in most people). but the flesh wants what it wants. it is completely selfish and demanding. that is why it feels like you are at war w/ yourself.
there is a quote in the Bible similar to your question. i think Paul says it.
the good news is that we do have a choice. we can choose to do what is right. if we mess up, we ask for forgiveness. then we RECEIVE this forgiveness. then we move on. hopefully next time we won't repeat our mistake.

Because you doubt yourself. You never think you're as good or as capable as you actually are.
This is where good friends come in, to offer you a third-party perspective from someone who really knows you and can tell you when you're being a dumba$$!

Please dont insult the human mind, insult the peolpe who make dumb desicions, the path to one perfection of your human is laid out in front of you, its your duty as a person to find what path works for you, your mind is doing all the thinking, but you are not allowing communication between your mind and the rest of you, do not doubt the path, you only doubt yourself~Parris Adams
Oh and jesus said be perfect you arent choosing to be as such, believe in your self not Jesus, but understand his principals of finding yourself through his teaching. And heaven is on earth, we just have to bring it back, this earth was given to us, and cant be taken away, or exchanged, but we can still mess it up with our imperfection, so help me bring back heaven, because when heaven comes I would like to still be in this body, and not have died and went on to be some other person
Another thing is that you need to forgive yourself, I was just talking to god to today and said to him "father I recognize me and what I do, and I do not like certain behavior I have, but I do forgive myself, and in knowing that, I know you forgive me as well, for what is easier for a man to do, forgive a man, or to tll him to get up" God command men, we as humans forgive them.

All of this is caused by sin. Jesus paid for our sins and now we are free to do what is right. Believe in Him and be set free from the bondage of sin.
By the way in heaven we will totally free from making mistakes. Just imagine that. I feel sorry for all of those who are going to hell.

that's how we were all born. that might be how we all die, unless you change it for yourself.
