Most conventional business wisdom says that when looking to start a business you should focus your efforts on areas in which you have experience or a particular interest / passion. But suppose you find yourself in a position where this isn't the case, perhaps you are working on a project for a client or you are picking up the reigns of the family business and you just can't get excited about it.

Another area this would apply is if you start a website and quickly realise that you don't know as much about the topic as you thought and your content ideas dry up!

Is the project doomed to fail? What can you do to overcome this and is this something that anyone has particular experience of?
