I think what you say is true, but I disagree that it is not a useful question to ask. Just like the world needs people who focus on the happiness of themselves and those close to them, it also needs those who look at problems that affect all of us and say '.. and this is what I am going to do about it' Pick your favorite world changer, do you really think they would have been motivated for change if they did not constantly ask themselves 'what am I going to do about this huge problem?'
