Do not fear living a life without luxuries, do not fear living without a car, jewellery or gadgets. Do not fear falling into poverty and failing at business.

These things come and go, and the one who doesn't have anything today may have it all tomorrow.

Rather, fear the loss of Allah from your life, fear the deprivation of Imaan and knowledge, fear the possibility of not reaching Jannah, and of not being to see His Face! And then use this fear like a ladder and work hard to earn His Pleasure.

To love Allah, to know Him intimately, to remember Him constantly, to find peace and rest in Him, to make Him alone the (ultimate) object of love, fear, hope and trust; to base one’s act on His control of His servant’s cares, aspirations and will—such is the world’s Heaven, and such is a blessing with which no other blessing can compare. 

- Ibn Qayyim Al Jawziyyah
