I still think it's important to differentiate between healthfully focusing on one's self, and unhealthfully focusing on one's self. One can prioritize one's own success and power and happiness and still be creating a better world for everyone else. And that can happen because the kinds of things that make one sustainably healthy and happy are good for other people too. For example, having lots of friends will help you be happy and successful. So wanting to have friends, even for a selfish reason (to be more successful) is good for everyone. And the better you treat them, the more they will want to help you become more successful. So being completely self-centered can have the same outward effect on the world as being a "lightworker" does.
