The answer

A person journeys to Allah through gratitude (shukr) and patience (sabr), for they are like two wings to a bird. Deficiency in either of them diminishes one's devotion. An example of this is someone who prolongs their prayer but lacks patience in refraining from looking at forbidden things, such as nude images of women. The remedy for abandoning sin lies in having patience in refraining from it, persevering in obedience, and keeping the company of the righteous. The sins a person commits are recorded against them, and the acts of obedience they perform are recorded for them, and on the Day of Judgment, prevalence will be for the greater amount.
