You need to make yourself easy to interface with the person that did this the best. He did it in three words: Steve Jobs, insanely great products.
He said, "You want to come make insanely great products? Then you come to Apple." If you are passionate about doing this, then come work with me. If you're not interested in it, then remove yourself from my life.

I really do believe these high-end personal networks are the greatest assets in the world. That's not hyperbolic; I literally believe that.
