A social worker once told me "never put more effort into helping someone than they are putting into helping themselves." I think that sums it up pretty well.

I also discovered that I had ulterior motives for much of my "helping." I was looking for something in return, like love, appreciation, admiration. I wasn't as altruistic as I thought I was.
