I agree with the previous posters saying do the "shield missions". You should have a shield for "Great Northern Wall".
When you complete a mission, you will see a sword go through the shield from upper-left to bottom-right. This lets you know you have completed the "Primary" portion of that mission, and you can move on.
Look for a shield on your map with NO swords through it. That will let you know where you need to go next to go through the story-arc.
Going through the story-arc will help get you more XP (1,000-2,000 XP per mission depending on whether you get the bonus objective). This will help you level faster.

Don't worry about xp, ever, at all. Trying to achieve secondary objectives will actually get it faster, and get you through the game faster.
Only do quests that offer skill points, item rewards you need, or missions (do all missions, they're fun and give skill points in addition to the xp). In order to find secondary outposts, use one of the many online maps, and if there's a quest to get there, might as well grab it. Finding these outposts is important when you start trying to unlock all skills, most of these minor towns have skill trainers. Don't buy the skills from them until you either finish the game or check online to make sure they're not offered for free by a quest however.

what would be the purpose of "getting through the game faster"? so we can have one more idiot on the forums complaining about how the game is too short and he has nothing left to do?

There's nothing wrong with doing all the quests. In fact, the first time through the game is really a great time to do that. On later characters, you'll probably be bored and only want to do some "essential" quests, like ones that grant skills.
In general, do whatever you want. But if you can't find the next mission, it should be the top quest in your quest log, marked "(Primary Quest)". Otherwise, go to the last location you've been and publicly ask people there where the next mission is.
Or tell us every location you've been to, and we'll tell you what to do. =)

my first time around with guild wars, i did most or all the quests and missions that is available. On my second character, i might just do half the quests.. the real need to do all the quests is to get the exp and get more enjoyment out of the overall story line.

Fifth character for me. Still pre-searing. Went a different direction I didn't realize I hadn't gone in before. New quests.
Go figure.

doesn't the number of swords signify completing the mission and bonus? I noticed when i got the mission it was one sword, complete the bonus and the second sword appears.
