And all these sacrifices can come up in various ways in our daily path which includes but not limited to the following: Anger: This enemy of progress is not in any form in your way to make things easy but to complicate your journey. Anger is a normal human emotion and it’s healthy, it’s only a problem when you as human allow the anger to control you rather than you in control.
