What will happen when I fix my mind constantly on You?

By fixing your mind, you will by my grace, overcome all obstacles. But if out of pride you don't listen to me, you will fall.(58)

How shall I fall?

Prompted by egoism, you think that you will not fight, this determination of yours is vain; because your nature (of a Ksatriya) will compel you to fight. O son of Kunti, it is out of delusion, you don't want to fight. But bound by your own duty born of your nature, you will fight helplessly against your will because you are a Ksatriya.(59-60)

Lord, how will the nature force me to fight?

Arjuna, the Lord dwells in the hearts of all beings and He by His illusive power causes all beings to revolve according to their nature as though mounted on a machine.(61)
