How does one secure the future?

I was just hit with this thought as i was about to go to bed.
Is the future something that can actually be secured? I mean, we don’t even know what would happen the next second.

We should really live in the present (now), for the future doesn’t really exist, only plans do.🤔

Thoughts?

the future is won every day look at the roman empire they secured most of their known world and then destroyed it all with infighting, or the same with the british empire or the various chinese dynasties like qing

the present is all we can live in and by doing our best there we buy the advantage towards securing tmrw
