Pick People With High Intelligence, High Energy and High Integrity

You need someone who's smart or they're heading in the wrong direction and you're not going to end up in the right place. Smart, it's not a pejorative. Depending on what you want to do well, you have to find someone who'ssmart at that thing. Then energy, a lot of times people are unmotivated for a specific thing, but they're not motivated for other things. High integrity is the most important because otherwise, if you've got the other two, what you have is hard work with a crook who's eventually going to cheat you.
