Question

What is correct use of sentence.
Everybody thinks of himself.

or Everybody thinks of herself.

or Everybody thinks of themselves.

Answer

"Everybody" is singular, so you cannot say "themselves."  You can say "himself," "herself" or "him/herself."

I know it is frustrating that there is not a neutral pronoun in English, but that does not mean we can start mixing singular and plural.

Answer

Everybody thinks of themselves
