Just do it for yourself...
"DO IT FOR YOURSELF! JUST DO IT FOR YOU!"
This bother's me so much.
For example there was this game show on the other day, and the individual playing the game had to make a decision that could effect her financially (it's a gameshow). It was a lot of money, and a few friends are allowed to interact with her and give her advice.
Her friend said, "Just do it for yourself. Just like I told you. Whatever you do, do it for yourself. Just you."
The crowd hooted and applauded this advice as being right and wise--they encouraged it. We can do that, can't we? The World does so much applaud the thought of doing it for yourself, do they not? "Do it for yourself... nobody else... just do it for you... YOU DESERVE IT."
What shamefully wrong advice from a friend it is indeed.
How about this instead. "Do it for God, then do it for others... and if you actually have time after those two options are exhausted... then do it for yourself."
