I like the brainstroming and self analysis bit (above) but if like some u don't have a creative bent then you're buggered and end up replicating something that's already out there, albeit with some fine tuning/embelishment of sorts. Are u thinking of something service or physical product related, or haven't u got that far?
WHS.
Plus knowing how to take risks and recognise opportunities is another. The final ingredient is drive(which is my weakness out of the 4).
Charging for the next teddy bears picnic or something else???

Anyone have experience of speculating on land
Such as buying plots of land without planning permission(which may look like a good bet) and then putting in applications over the years.
Seeing some interesting plots £50/£60/£100k which don't have permission, have tried previously, but there is a chance in the future.
Anyone done this? Pointers? Experience?
(Adding to that, has anyone bought any woodland at any point?)
I've got plans B and C but I don't get time to work on them. Whenever I'm on the bench (like now) I'm so consumed with finding my next contract I can't concentrate. I have to think of the 'here and now' not 'what might be' or I might have to sell a house or something! Entirely my fault I know - paying for the sins of a previous life.
