I second Oomis in applauding your efforts. R’Noach Weinberg, zt’l whose yahrzeit was yesterday, if I am not mistaken, said that we grow closer to the Almighty with the merit of even one mitzvah, and our tradition tells us that even the intention to do a mitzvah is meritorious, so kol hakavod.
I also wanted to mention that in Judaism, when we are not focusing on that wich we have done right, we focus most on the concept of averah – transgression, rather than cheit – sin. Why? Well, because of the concept of personal teshuvah, which differentiates us from other religions, the idea of transgression, “crossing over” to wrongdoing, allows us the ability to “cross back” or “return” – Teshuvah. Sin is a word which has been essentially abducted by the christians and imbued with meaning specific to their misconceptions. We don’t see it as a “state of being” so much as a transitory designation before it is withdrawn through sacrifice in the time of the Beit Hamikdash, or prayer and Hashem’s mercy nowadays.
Hatzlacha on your journey.
