Reincarnation is a possibility, and if you don't do your best to try to find solutions to your problems you may have to come back to a similar situation, with similar problems to work through. Over and over again, until you find a solution (which doesn't necessarily mean that your problems have to be solved by self effort, you may need to find the right people to help you).

So you might as well put your heart, time, energy, and money into finding solutions.
