Selflessness is the only way to get out of Samsara. There is no I. There is no self.
What assurance do you have that you will go to the future? Everyone has the equal and opportunistic chance to go but only those that realize the total reason for being looped into the past in the first place, stay in the past to repeat it indefinitely. It's next to impossible to get out because you are too attached to yourself to want too.
