It's not always smart to go out of your way, especially doing irrational things just to prove a point or to win over someone who might not be worth it. It’s kind of like saying, don't waste your time or compromise yourself—like your pride or values—just to impress someone or get validation. There’s a hint of irony too, that even people who are smart or have heart sometimes do foolish things for the wrong reasons.
