Genesis 4

Jealousy leads to anger and bitterness that will easily allow sin to enter and take control of you.

Genesis 4:7
If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it."

The recognition, fame, acknowledgement of your successes and doings are not important... but rather whether what you're doing is morally right and is just in the Lord's eyes. Idolizing earthly things like fame can cause one to stumble and do things that may not be righteous in order to obtain these things that don't last.

Sin may help you accomplish or complete your task, but other than that will bring you no good at all.
