Macbeth is trapped between the reality and what was promised to him. He has already seen one part of this promise come true - that he will become the thane of Cawdor. But he is aware that, to become the king, he will most likely have to murder the present king Duncan, and take his place. This thought terrifies him, and yet he cannot resist it. His transformation is quick and sudden, just like the turn of events. From a man who had doubted the weird sisters' prophecy, much as he liked it, he becomes a man who is ready to admit to himself what needs to be done.
