Overcoming Overwhelm: Simple Steps to Get Started with AI

Have you ever met someone who feels so overwhelmed by AI that they don’t even want to start?


They’ve heard it all:

  • AI can revolutionize industries, including land management."

  • Tools like ChatGPT and Gemini are reshaping how professionals work.

  • If you’re not learning AI, you’ll get left behind.

  • There are hundreds of tools, courses, and articles to explore.


But instead of getting excited, they feel paralyzed. They can’t even begin to figure out where to start.


They’ve read the headlines, seen the buzz, and felt the pressure… but all of that noise just makes it harder to take the first step.


What’s that all about?


We see this all the time, with people hesitating to dive into AI.


The reasons?

  • Fear/scared

  • Unsure how to begin

  • Analysis paralysis


Let’s talk about that last one: analysis paralysis.




The Overwhelmed Beginner: Too Much, Too Soon


When you’re overwhelmed, your brain starts spinning with questions:

  • “What’s the best AI tool to start with?”

  • “Do I need to understand coding first?”

  • “What if I make a mistake or waste my time on the wrong thing?”


The result? You stay stuck.


It’s like saying:

  • “I won’t try learning AI because I’m not sure which tool is the absolute best.”

  • “I’ll avoid it altogether because it feels like I’m already behind.”

  • “It’s just too much. Maybe next year.”


Sound familiar?
