I want to approach zen but I subconsciously know that I want to do so as a way to cope with my inferiority complex and my failures irl.
how can I manage to actually approach it with an honest heart?
I subconsciously know that I want to use it so I can say "I'm spiritually higher than you" since I suck in all other fields. But I want to abandon my old shitty self and really embrace zen.

I´d do it anyways because if you truly embrace zen and understand it, that very feeling should dissapear in the act. Im not expert, but central part of the philosophy consists in reducing ego influence in your life

I see. Well, that does makes sense.
Thanks anon:)
