Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you've only done good deeds to benefit yourself, aren't your good deeds all for naught whether you are worshipping the right God or not? Won't the God you believe in know that you've been faking it?
Doing good things to help other actual living humans for their benefit, as opposed to just doing them to ensure a reservation in paradise for yourself, is not a waste of time.
