Love is not self-seeking

Self-seeking is easy to do, it's natural for us. Seeking what others want, what God wants is way harder. :)

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Matthew 6:33

Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor.
1 Corinthians 10:24

For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.
Galatians 5:17

Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Philippians 2:4

How about you? Do you need God's help in this area?
