Depends on why you think that. But remember even if you have done something stupid in the past, you can change, and if you're willin to do that you're not a bad person.
i have the same problem. i think i'm as evil as evil gets, but i'm not. i'm told by some that i'm evil and others that i'm an angel with devil horns. it is normal. the question isn't if you're good or evil. it's if you have the willpower to choose your path
everyone is evil. we are born with sin. i sometimes feel like evil resides in me. and it might. there is a devil. there is sin. there is evil. there is also good. and God. and forgiveness. and a way to heaven
I seriously feel like I have the worst f**king thoughts in the history of time, but my life is devoted to owning/operating a non-profit biz aimed at economic development in 3rd world countries. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I do know that sometimes you cannot control your thoughts, but you can always control your actions.
I don't think we're capable of being "good." I think there was only one truly good person to walk the earth and He was crucified about 2,000 years ago. Think about it: Most people - even atheists - will admit that the Ten Commandments are morally acceptable "guidelines" by which to live. If everyone adhered to them, we'd be better off as a society. So I think it's fair that they are a pretty good measure of what is "good."
So, instead of measuring ourselves against the "goodness" of others, we should measure our "goodness" against a more stable, time-tested and widely-accepted moral code, (the Ten Commandments). After all, if we compare ourselves to that boss we had that came in late and left early and used the company computer to surf the net more than work or we compare ourselves to Hitler, then we seem to think we're pretty good. But let's measure everyone against the same standard.
Ever told a lie? One lie? A half-truth or exaggeration? We all have. That makes us a liar.
Ever stolen anything, (this includes candy as a kid, towels from the hotel, using the printer at work to print off your personal documents, taking a pen home from someone else's desk or even goofing off at work; which is stealing your employer's time)? The value of the item is irrelevant and you would be a thief.
Ever desire something that didn't belong to you? That's the tenth of the Commandments and that has to be broken before you can steal something, (which is the eighth Commandment), or commit adultery, (which is the seventh Commandment and, incidentally, looking at someone with lust is a form of adultery).
That's just a few of the Ten Commandments. In light of that moral code/standard, I think every single one of us fall very, very short of qualifying as "good."

I don't think many people are truly evil to the core, but I think there are some.
