/b/, i've a literature exam tomorrow, and i can't understand

there is nothing else to conquer but yourself

you get good at guitar; you've conquered yourself, not the guitar. the guitar won't just start listening to your demands.

the way I understand it, it means:

the best thing about achievement isn't the act of achieving, but the act of defeating your own weaknesses to achieve it.

like how a fat person works out and becomes fit, the best thing about that achievement is he conquered his laziness and bad eating habits.
