Whoah. No. It's the opposite. The shittier your projects, the lower your rate, the more aggressive you have to be with your pipeline, for obvious mathematical reasons.

Ohhhh! (Light bulb). So you're saying, make your rate very high, which will weed out all but the best projects. Then, be willing to only work half the year (if necessary), but your rate will be high enough to cover it. Is that right?
