Simplified Meaning:

People often have mental chains that they place on themselves. These are not real chains, but rather the negative beliefs and thoughts we create in our minds. For example, if someone always thinks they are not good enough, they may believe they can never succeed. This stops them from trying new things or working towards their goals because they are held back by their own thoughts. In history, this can be seen in the way people have felt trapped in their roles in society, even when there were opportunities to break free. To apply this to your life, try to recognize when your thoughts are holding you back. Challenge those beliefs and replace them with positive thoughts. By doing this, you can free yourself from those mental chains and start working towards your dreams and goals.
