This is actually a concept discussed at length in freemasonry. It boils down to maintaining a sense of humility.
So you can be appreciative of people noticing, but that’s not at the core of why you behave in that manner, nor do you need people to notice to validate it.
I like that. It’s just a fringe benefit.

Exactly. If your motivation for helping someone is your own validation, you’re not a good person. You’re an a-hole using someone else’s misfortune for your own benefit.
