I recommend reading the Thera apadana. Many kind of good deeds can fulfil one’s aspirations. There are many good deeds such as thinking good thoughts about the Buddha, or praising the Buddha, or paying homage. These deeds can give immeasurable good results and prevent one from falling into bad realms until one becomes an arahant.
There was also a case where someone was able to observe the five precepts for his entire life and was only reborn in good realms for a very very long time until becoming an arahant.
