The ability to control desires and emotions is crucial in various aspects of life. From work to social relationships, patience and discipline are keys to success and happiness.

Fasting teaches us to appreciate the process and the results of hard work. We learn not to give up easily and to always strive to achieve our goals with full patience and discipline.
