There are three ways (Bodhis) which you can reach Nirwana. Those are Sammā-Sambodhi(Lord Buddha), Pacceka-Bodhi and Savaka-Bhodhi(Arahath).

The easiest way to get enlightenment (or reach Nirwana) is the Savaka-Bhodhi.

Those who obtained the enlightenment by following teachings of the Samma-Sambuddha are obtained enlightenment through Savaka-Bhodhi. They have to do concentrated meditation (Bhavana) to develop Samadhi (Samatha meditation). Then with developed mind they have to think about three marks of existence (Samsara) which is Anicca, Dukkha and Anatta. (Vipassanā meditation). Doing this with big effort they will understand Four Noble Truths clearly. So they will attain Nirvana (get enlightenment).

If you have cultivated enough virtues connected with Bodhi (bodhipaksa dharma) you can reach Nirwana in this life because still not exceeded 5000years range from the Gautama Lord Buddha's enlightenment.

First thing you have to do is believe the supreme state of Lord Buddha(infinite intelligence, infinite power, infinite kindness, ..) and existence of Karma. Then follow Noble Eightfold Path, Study Dharma and do Mediation (Vipassana). You will be reaching Nirwana definitely with permanent happy and without any more sufferings in sad Samsara(infinite cycle of rebirth).
