Nobody can go to heaven now. Bible never teaches that believers or their souls go to heaven right away after one dies. Jesus referred to death as a sleep. When Lazarus died, He told His disciples that Lazarus fall asleep. See John 11:11-14 Christians go to heaven after resurrection from the death at last day. Martha, one of Jesus followers, understood it correctly. See John 11:24.
We will read the Bible from cover to cover and won't find expression 'eternal soul' in it.
For those who disagree with my answer, please go to following site and read the article that refers to the Bible to prove the point, before coming up with an objections. Thank you in advance to all you will do.

Given a choice I would live a life of pain rather than leave one second before my alloted timespan. I'm here to learn the hard karmic lessons not to yearn for illusory heavens.

Either one would be fine. You live for eternity so life on earth really is just a blink of the eye.

I live a full life every day. A "full life" is not a destination, but a direction, IMO.
