Please try to rewrite this sentence making it simpler and using phrases you are familiar with.

The work has been done by others. (Where did you learn the word 'otherselves'? It seems you have created it yourself.
Also, please check the difference between 'advice' and 'advise'.
Again, you can improve your written English if you make your sentences shorter and use phrases you have read or heard several times.
Apart from that, your explanation is right and you have understood the difference between both constructions.
Regards,
Torsten

Hi Torsten,
otherselves - Mistake happened throgh oversight.
advise - there I should use Noun form "advice" instead advise (verb) as I wrote.
Many thanks for your valuable suggestions.
thanks,
