Why did Imam advise to perform deeds in pure forms for divine sake?

According to Imam, for even if we have performed good deeds, they are not pure and untainted.

A thousand contaminations, each of which is enough to make them unacceptable to God, afflict them. If we acquired any knowledge, it was futile and fruitless for us, our learning being either nonsensical and absurd or itself a big impediment in the path of the Hereafter
