six obstacles

"Ibrahim bin Adham said to a man during Tawaf: ' You should know that you will not attain the rank of the righteous until you overcome six obstacles. The first is that you close the door of luxury and open the door of hardship. The second is that you close the door of arrogance and open the door of humility. The third is that you close the door of comfort and open the door of struggle. The fourth is that you close the door of sleep and open the door of night vigil. The fifth is that you close the door of excessive wealth and open the door of dignified poverty. The sixth is that you close the door of procastination and open teh door of preparation for death.' "
