Abu Ad-Dardaa (Radhiallahu 'Anhu) used to say, "The most severe of what I fear for myself on the Day of Resurrection is that it were to be said to me, 'Oh Abu Dardaa, you performed deeds, so how did you perform deeds yet did not learn?'" And he used to say, "If you knew what you will encounter after death, then you would not even eat food just for pleasure, nor would you drink any drink just for pleasure, nor would you even enter a house just to seek shade within it. You would rather go out to a high place, striking your chests and crying over yourselves. And I wish I were just a tree that is used for support and then eaten."

Imagine if Companions, who were best people on the earth, lived like that what is our own condition?
