Well, that's not what I meant.

Then clarify it for me.

If I do a good thing and end up feeling good because of it or getting some other benefit, am I thereby demonstrated to be "selfish" even if I wasn't expecting the benefit, or if it had absolutely no bearing on my decision to perform the good deed?

I got a reward, so therefore I'm selfish in doing the work which earned it, even if I didn't know I'd get the reward or didn't care?
