Mostly I'd say "don't bother". Just do it yourself and if you get to a point where you can't do it all, hire help on a mostly mercenary basis. Or if you're doing it just for fun and not so much to build a company, you can also put the thing on Github (if it's a software project) and spread the word and hope somebody else comes along who wants to contribute.
I say this because, IME, the chances of finding people who:
- are motivated
- are talented
- are compatible with you from a personality viewpoint
AND (perhaps most importantly)
- aren't already working on their own thing
approximates 0. If you find somebody like that and can partner up with them, treat it like "found money". But if you wait for that to happen to start building something, you'll probably never start.
