Truthfully while I haven't researched totally indepth of the concept... I think it's just a need or desire for label and understanding of self. Just with all other personality theories.

In my mind, everybody is a light worker overall. It's difficult to believe that actions that benefit ourselves is considered as darkworking as all actions benefit the self in some form but I guess we'll need to consider primary/secondary reasons (something I don't believe people can easily know given the subconscious mind)

It makes more sense for me to work with the love (including self-love)/hate concept.

Your goal as a lightworker is to put your energy into helping the greater good; as many people as you can find.

A darkworker will find themselves working out alone in the gym, focusing intently on hitting bodybuilding goals, stamina goals, and be concerned with their own peak performance.

Each of these will eventually become a very physically fit person, but achieve it through different means.
nice example, but i find a problem with it. you stated the lightworker helps many reach a goal through action while the darkworker helps only thyself reach a goal. team building

to keep the balance i would like to add that once a darkworker reaches a goal, they will become a leader and through inaction help others reach goals. silent icon

make sense?
