I would argue a class of people implicitly recognize this and eschew with much of the advice or ideas proposed by systems and individuals on “how to live better” because they recognize it as faulty and insincere, because they are rooted in this intention of “look at me.”
Is all instruction on living really rooted in selfishness or is this class of people a hoard of cynics? Might it be wiser to cut and bind this knowledge of "look at me" on a case by basis?

How does he escape this prison?
He scales up his chicken farm to feed his friends and family. If he's ambitious, he then scales up his chicken farm to feed the world. All that matters is he provides for more than himself ... otherwise he might as well stay a chicken.
It may be that anyone who has had anything worth saying first began with the phrase "look at me." The gift is when you give something new to look at.

I like that.
As for our chicken friend, how on earth do you scale up a chicken farm when you are, in fact, a chicken?

Yes, could be!

Because if you-the-farmer are feeding yourself-the-chicken, you aren't just the chicken.
