Tips:
 - Do not ask others what your limits should be ( "able for me" )
 - Drop restrictions   ( "without needing any ..." )
 - Use open questions  (avoid "get it working [yes/no]" questions)

Tell your audience what they might be missing.
Explain them the cool thing that you want, aim for common interrest.
