In reality, no one’s usually trying to prevent us from achieving our goals. The situation is most often one like that brilliantly portrayed in the British TV series The Prisoner. Throughout the series the hero, identified as Number Six, is trying to escape from evil people who are working for the villain, Number One. Finally, in the last episode he understands the answer to his question “Who is Number One?” When he first heard the answer in episode 1, it sounded like “You are Number Six.” Now he understands that the answer to “Who is Number One?” is “You are, Number Six.” He had metaphorically imprisoned himself. As Franz Kafka put it, “It was a barred cage that he was in. Calmly and insolently, as if at home, the din of the world streamed out and in through the bars, the prisoner was really free, he could take part in everything, nothing that went on outside escaped him, he could simply have left the cage, the bars were yards apart, he was not even a prisoner.”
