The circumstance that offers the opportunity to help wake up an other self will manifest always at the right time. Wanting it to happen is just putting out negative "controlling" energy and will get you "lesson" circumstances where you'll try to teach and end up learning something instead. Example: I was at a point where I thought it was right to make others aware of their suffering and teach them how to stop it. The discussion was on the topic of life troubles and I asked this acquaintance "Is there suffering in your life?" Even though she had just been talking about petty problems she had been creating, she said "No." She was thinking at a different level and in that moment, she was my zen teacher, instead of the other way around.
When you pass that point, you realize that all you have to do is, as Peregrinus has said, do more work on the inward self, the self that is already seeking awakening. And as you do this and put out more and more radiant positive energy, unawakened other selves will be attracted to it and those that are ready to awaken will start talking to you. The point is to always be ready, and that circumstance will manifest at the right time.
