Love Affair with Our Concepts = Upset
There is really so much self-love to do with our concepts and ways of thinking and feeling about things. There is also so much self-love about our ways of doing things.
What keeps us attached to our own concepts about things is a kind of a love affair with them and ourselves.
We must love our Being and ourselves as an essence of a Divine Monad but to love our concepts that are not Divine in nature and could well be erroneous or are just as good as the concepts of others, does not make much sense.
Yet we are truly in love with our concepts...
The proof is that we get upset and angry and fight over our concepts when they are challenged, and furthermore we feel that things should all go in accordance with our concepts so that our concepts are 'pleased'.

Conclusion
The conclusion is to work to detach ourselves from our very own concepts. This is freedom and so useful in practical life. It also does not mean we are any less or that we are going to disappear or become weak and ineffective.
The essence does not have concepts. It does not depend on concepts and it is shines more powerfully even without concepts. Each concept is a bottle or jail for the essence.
