The way I see it wether you like it or not, to be a good dad you have responsibilities. You have to feed the family, mow the lawn, fix things around the house. But you have a choice, you can minimum standard that shit, nobody will really care and you save a bit of time. Or you can take that bit of extra care and time and give yourself the pride in a job well done.
Same goes with trying to look after yourself for the sake of not dying young for your families benefit if nothing else, doing jack shit is really easy and doing "enough" really isnt that hard its just way harder than jack shit. But going that extra mile for me, my ego, my pride and self image doesnt take that much longer or that much more effort.
