Are you better at filtering, or at seeking?

One route is to cast a wide net, with a very specific filter.

The other is to be very targeted in who you approach. Find likeminded people, which will require finding a lot of not-likeminded people.

The key to both is scale. The work is both in the skill (how good of a filter do you have? How good are you at really identifying people who value what you value?), but the real secret is volume. Persistence, scale, volume, and a way to improve your filters.

There are no shortcuts.
