I've adapted that quote to "what if today were the last day of our civilization/world". It can be quite liberating I find.
Helping people in the now is also what I'd be doing and trying to do :).
May the future rest in peace.

My all-time favorite quotes from Steve Jobs: “I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.”

An analogy here that I like is if I'd be personally diagnosed with late-stage cancer, I would certainly not fight it, but just accept my fate.
IMO the world has never been so much in 'late-stage cancer' mode. Maybe some civilizations were though?

So this is assuming the 'worst case' at the 95% percentile? (Not sure how the distribution is, but could be even far worse at the 99% percentile right?)
