Recent events have compelled me to study inner conflicts. Having arrived at this decision, I turned to one of my favorite books in an attempt to identify said conflict. However, upon opening _Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (Philosopher's) Stone_ I realized that I hadn't the faintest clue what the main inner conflict was.

The only thing that feels remotely like an inner conflict, is Harry's subtle denial that he can't be a wizard, in the face of all that is changing about him. I feel certain this is _an_ inner conflict, but I doubt it is the main one.

What is the main inner conflict in the first _Harry Potter_ book?
