From Guru Sh. AB Shukla ji:
Recently, one of my friend (Sh. Soumya ji from Mysore) posted the following on fb:
“The only person who can pull me down is myself, and I'm not going to let myself pull me down anymore.”
This reminds me of a shloka from Gita which is very dear to my Guruji. It goes like this:
“This means - let a man raise himself by his own efforts. Let him not degrade himself.
Because a person's best friend or his worst enemy is none other than his own self.”
Astrologically, this shloka talks of lagna (aatmana) and lagnesh (aatmanam) and gives an indication that remedial (uddharet) to strengthen lagna and lagnesh shall be done regularly in one’s life. Importance of lagna and lagnesh is paramount in a horoscope.
This also clears the doubt if remedy should be done or not and whether remedy is effective or not. Lord Krishna himself has prescribed that.

उद्धरेत आत्मनात्मानं नात्मानं अवसादयेत ।
आत्मैव ह्यात्मनो बन्धुरात्मैव रिपुरात्मन: ॥ 6.5 ॥
Uddharet atmana atmanam na atmanam avasadayet
Atma aiva hy atmano bandhu atma aiva ripu atmanah ..6.5..
Because a person's best friend or his worst enemy is none other than his own self.”
