The only advice is to make a continuous, all-out effort to serve God.

Scriptural Answer:

John 3:13New King James Version (NKJV)

13 No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.

Revelation 21:1-4New King James Version (NKJV) All Things Made New21 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. 2 Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away." Ezekiel 37:12-14New King James Version (NKJV)

12 Therefore prophesy and say to them, 'Thus says the Lord God: "Behold, O My people, I will open your graves and cause you to come up from your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. 13 Then you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O My people, and brought you up from your graves. 14 I will put My Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I, the Lord, have spoken it and performed it," says the Lord.'"

Final point, many use Enoch and Elijah as examples of God taking them up to the 3rd Heaven where His Throne is. But is that consistent with Scripture? Perhaps a better translation would be 'transfer' them to another place on Earth for safety via the term 'heaven' meaning sky or atmosphere. When the Apostle Paul spoke of Elijah in Hebrews 11:5, this is the meaning of the Greek term he used.

If you say that you are most likely going heaven are you really going to hell?

From the point of view of most evangelical Christians, the answer most would give is yes. If I say that I am most likely going to heaven, I am not SURE that I am going to heaven. I am also likely to think that there is something more I should do in order to make my chances of heaven greater. All of this leads to the basic teaching that salvation (heaven) is assured to those who are 'born again', and only the 'born again' are going to heaven. So expressing any doubt indicates that I am not 'born again', and therefore I am not going to heaven.

Does the pope go to heaven?

Everyone is judged by Our Blessed Lord at the moment of death. No one can know if someone is in heaven or is going to heaven short of divine revelation. There are some popes in heaven, we know because they are canonized (declared saints) which means that they are in heaven. Those that are not canonized, we cannot know.
