Perfect my intention so that I can worship Allaah

It is of Shirk to perform a (righteous) deed for worldly reasons

 
Allaah (سُبحانه وتعالى) said:

مَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتَهَا نُوَفِّ إِلَيْهِمْ أَعْمَالَهُمْ فِيهَا وَهُمْ فِيهَا لاَ يُبْخَسُونَ

"Whosoever desires the life of the world & its glitter; to them We shall pay in full (the wages of) their deeds therein & they will have no diminution therein."
(Hud 11:15)

أُوْلَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ فِي الآخِرَةِ إِلاَّ النَّارُ وَحَبِطَ مَا صَنَعُواْ فِيهَا وَبَاطِلٌ مَّا كَانُواْ يَعْمَلُونَ

They are those for whom there is nothing in the Hereafter but Fire; & vain are the deeds they did therein. And of no effect is that which they used to do.
(Hud 11:16)
