Nibbana is guaranteed by definition. This is the diffence between Nibbana and worldly life; in worldly life nothing is guaranteed. This is why we have lawyers and insurance - to try to guarantee the unguaranteeable. Nibbana is eternal and what is eternal is always present, find what is eternal in yourself and you find that you have been in Nibbana all along but just didn't realize it. Make merit, meditate, you may be much nearer to being Nibbana than you thought!.

I think that Nirvana is guaranteed, but the delivery date is open. Everyone will get it, but it might take a few billion reincarnations first.

Same comment about the Buddha himself - when he sat under the tree and said "right, I'm not leaving this spot until I have found the truth" (or whatever the exact words were), he was trying to achieve something, not just going with the flow

Adjahn Brahm starts off by saying you should not be goal orientated and aim to be elightened, but doens't this contradict the Buddha's last words to his followers: All component things in the world are changeable. They are not lasting. Work hard to gain your own salvation. Do your best.
Or another (simpler) translation: Conditioned things are perishable;
with vigilance strive to succeed
