Horrible year / failure

Setting up a new strategy in a new geography (developing market) for a tier one (think oaktree, Varde or Farallon) credit / hedge fund. Failing to make any head way or progress on the investing side - think the opportunity set just isn’t there yet and will take a few years to develop. How do you better spend time in this situation?
