Old story about the professor teaching a class.

He placed a jar on the desk and poured marbles out of a bag into the jar until it was overflowing.

He then asked the class if the jar was full, the students inspected the jar and they all agreed the jar was full.

Wrong he said.

He then took out a bag of sand and managed to pour more than a cup of it into the jar that all the students previously declared full.

He had them inspect the jar again.

Once again they all agreed the jar was now full.

Wrong again he said.

Next he managed to pour half a cup of water into the full jar.

The story goes on but the point is in any market the big guys are after the marbles you are probably too small to compete with them at this point.

The smaller but still profitable sand size jobs there is not enough meat on the bone for them to be bothered with tooling up to do them.

The water sized jobs tend to be small volume specialized work that can pay very well.

Based on the skills and equipment you have or can obtain identify where you best fit in.

-Small parcels where big equipment can not fit.

-Mowing and baling low spots in crop land.

-Clearing fence rows.

-Cleaning out bins.

-Rolling fields

-Rock picking

-Post pounding.

-Transporting bales, grain, water, fertilizer, livestock...

-Clearing fallen trees off perimeter of fields prior to harvest.

Countless possibilities if you sit down and think about it.

Start small, see what works find your sand or water then go hard.

The right ideas and best of plans are worthless if you do not have the ambition and drive to succeed.

If you think it is above you to clean a toilet, if you are a whinny little snot and think the world should be handed to you on a platter then disregard everything I have said.

However if you can figure things out, do not give up and are not scared of work you will find a niche market and do well.
