— Miguel de Cervantes

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, the biggest challenges we face come from inside ourselves. Things like fear, doubt, and negative thoughts can stop us more than any outside problem. For example, if someone wants to start a new job but constantly thinks they are not good enough, this can prevent them from even trying. In history, many successful people had to overcome their own insecurities and self-doubt to achieve their goals. Understanding this can help people realize that building confidence and having a positive mindset are important for overcoming obstacles. Instead of only focusing on outside problems, it's crucial to work on improving our inner strength and self-belief.
