It's Good To Have A "Variety Of Experiences" To Draw Upon
Everyone knows this.
It's common knowledge.
Parents admonish their children with this little nugget of advice; they will tell their children,
"Try something new."
"Expand your horizons."
"Get out there and give it a shot."
Unfortunately, the vast majority of parents and people in general, give this advice casually, without actual impetus or urgency.
While the truth is, life will easily pass a person by (as is my sorry life story), the result being that without sufficient input of energy, a person will find themselves stuck in a rut, without the means to get out.
A Large "Skill Set"
I do not know this very well from personal experience, but I think that it is a very rewarding event, when you are able to help someone in need because of the large variety of skills you have to draw upon.
Again, this is common knowledge.
Of course it is "nice" and "useful" to have a large array of skills available to use.
It makes a person "well rounded" and "more marketable" and "a better hire".
This utilitarian view of seeking though, defeats the motivation to actually do it.
Life Is Short : Find Teachers Who Actually Love To Teach
Think about it this way, the majority of people do their jobs because they have to.
They have to pay their bills.
If they're lucky, maybe they like some parts of their job.
Naturally, these poor people are not going to be very good teachers.
The Sad Truth : Most Jobs Require Skills That Can Be Acquired In A Week Of Focused Teaching, But Are Parceled Out, Carrot On A Stick Style, To Keep People Weak And Stuck
Untapped potential.
Pretty much sums up humanity at the moment.
The mass of men leading lives of quiet desperation.
Don't succumb to that.
The Seeker Journey : An Adventure, Not A Career Workshop
Magic.
The Seeker Journey is a quest.
A quest to find people who have knowledge they want to share.
No Time Constraints
People who want to teach do not obligate you to stick around for a year or some similar time constraint.
They want to teach and when you have had your fill, they are happy to send you along.
[Finding People Like Me]
I am frustrated with a society which shares knowledge piecemeal.
Everything I know, I teach freely.
I understand life is short and there is so much to learn.
Wasting another person's time by sharing knowledge in a hoarding way is unfair.
A Chance To Travel : With A Purpose
I think, traveling when one has purpose, makes the trip all the more meaningful.
Seeking : Energy ; Seeking : Confidence
The world desperately needs an empowered human species,
in place of the primitive and unjust, top heavy, wealthy driven society we have now.
Seekers are young people (or, in my sad case, people) who seek out other people who are eager to help them become more confident, more skilled.
Confidence is Energy.
Energy is Confidence.
A society of people filled with energy and confidence,
is a society of people who operate a healthy world.
Set Your Standards High
This isn't an easy proposition.
It will very likely involve a lot of travel.
But that is part of the appeal.
There Is SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE Out There
...but most people are too lost in the world of aggressive competition to be capable of sharing it.
But, there are some, a few, who through happy circumstance, truly love what they do and are eager to share what they know.
Your Quest : to find those people.
Need Money? Work, but not with despair, with PURPOSE
Seeking requires money.
Money for food.
Money for shelter.
We are still in the pathetic evolutionary state of money : the product of mistrust.
Money is a necessary evil,
but,
you will not be working with despair in your heart.
You will be working so you can :
keep yourself strong and healthy.
have the money to resume your travels once more.
A Noble Quest To Become A Noble Individual
The Seeker is a person who is on a quest to become strong and confident.
The Seeker is a person who wants to become a healthy, helpful human being.
A Seeker knows that to become a noble human being, one must become strong and confident.
This is the reason the seeker seeks.
Seekers become Teachers
Those same True Teachers whom Seekers seek,
are the teachers seekers become.
An Environment Where You Want To Learn
Learn, Learn, Learn
Learn All You Can
When you find the place where you are inspired to learn : learn all you can.
Fill yourself up.
Human beings have no limits.
There are no limits on what you can learn, so learn, and learn, and learn.

Community Think Tanks [Grassroots, Public Participation Movement]
People are direct participants in the guidance of their society.
People are central players in the outcome of their society.
People are actively engaged in the diverse functionings of their society.
As opposed to the current manifestation of democracy which is prevalent,
where the majority of people feel :

People are actively engaged in the diverse functionings of their society.
As opposed to the current manifestation of democracy which is prevalent,
where the majority of people feel :
- Electing government officials is sufficient participation in the governing process, after which further participation is a bonus. After all, elected officials' "job" is to govern the society, they should be able to do so on their own.
- The wealthy and those in power are untouchable. Everyday people cannot do anything to affect much change in their society. Normal people are subject to the whims of the wealthy and there is little that can be done about it.
- Societal problems are too massive and overwhelming to contemplate without succumbing to insanity. Best to just take it one day at a time and live day by day. Thinking too much about things outside of one's control makes life intolerable.

A Citizen Societal / Political Consultant
Corporations use Consultants to help them research, analyze and find solutions to areas where there is need for growth.
I figure, "what's food for the goose..."
The Well-Informed, Confident, Empowered Citizen
If large, multinational Corporations can use Consultants to help them maximize their profits,
everyday people,
normal citizens,
can employ the same techniques of research, analysis and solution storming to troubleshoot the social and political problems in their society.
Which Kind Of Consultant Is Really Helping The World More?
The one who is helping a large, multinational corporation make more money so they give larger bonuses to their CEO's,
or the Consultant who is figuring out solutions to their society becoming more equitable and just.
hmm...that's a toughie... -_- ...
Perhaps Joining Up With A Community Think Tank
Consultants often work in teams, combining their unique backgrounds and insights to form a larger pool of solutions to draw upon.
Citizen Consultants actually trying to make the world a better place can do that too.
----Short Personal Rant. Feel Free To Ignore.----
I deride Multinational Corporations a great deal.
I apologize for being derisive.
I just find it ridiculous that human beings waste their potential trying to vampirically suck the energy from their fellow human beings, the very human beings on whom mutual survival, and speaking truly, happiness depends.
Short sighted and Immature thinking.
Multinationals are run by small groups of profit driven individuals who display a real sense of disconnect from the rest of humanity.
Like the wealthy have always displayed in human history.
I'd recommend to them, that if they choose to help people tap their potential, they will be surprised at how much "the masses" are really capable of.
