When was the last time you did something for yourself?
When was the last time you did something for another?
When was the last time you did something for the Lord?
If the first two questions are easy to answer and have been done more recently than the last one, then it shows who you serve first. And if you’re not seeking the Holy Spirit in all that you do first before doing anything else for yourself or someone else, than your works are in vain. No matter how you may try to reason it out that what you’re doing is good, it won’t compare to His righteousness in your own leading.
