The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) directed us to observe Saum (fasting) on the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth of the (lunar) month.
[Abu Dawud].
Riyad as-Salihin : Book 9, Hadith 273

When you try to please the world, it's at the expense of your akhira. When you try to do what is good for your akhira, the world tries to grasp you and is not pleased with you. You can't give 100% of yourself to both and we are living in a constant pull to both directions, still in sha Allah leaning towards the hereafter. Just like one would lean towards one of the two wives, no matter how much he tries to be just and equal.

Uprightness and Steadfastness

Allah, the Exalted, says:

"So stand (ask Allah to make) you (Muhammad (PBUH)) firm and straight (on the religion of Islamic Monotheism) as you are commanded...'' (11:112)

"Verily, those who say: `Our Rubb is Allah (Alone),' and then they stand firm, on them the angels will descend (at the time of their death) (saying): 'Fear not, nor grieve! But receive the glad tidings of Jannah which you have been promised! We have been your friends in the life of this world and are (so) in the Hereafter. Therein you shall have (all) that your inner-selves desire, and therein you shall have (all) for which you ask. An entertainment from (Allah), the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.''' (41:30-32)

"Verily, those who say: `Our Rubb is (only) Allah,' and thereafter stand firm and straight (on the Islamic Faith of Monotheism), on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. Such shall be the dwellers of Jannah, abiding therein (forever), - a reward for what they used to do.'' (46:13,14)

O ye who believe! If ye keep your duty to Allah, He will give you discrimination (between right and wrong) and will rid you of your evil thoughts and deeds, and will forgive you. Allah is of Infinite Bounty. ﴾29﴿ Surah Anfal

The more knowledge you have, the greater will be your fear of Allah. (Saying of Abu Bakr R.A.)
