I struggle with knowing how to start. It's a common thing - decision paralysis. If it's something I'm comfortable with, then step aside, I don't know exactly what I'm going to do but I will take that calculated risk to step forward. In Skool though, I am finding it more challenging to say "I will start with these specific subjects". I realize that I am overthinking it, and knowing that is half the key. I find more value in movement forward than perfection, especially as I learn more about myself and the industry. We like things to be right but that alone can often hinder us from making the best decisions in our lives. So, does this relate to you? Do you find yourself starting at the array of issues on your farm only to feel overwhelmed and paralyzed? Don't feel alone - many of us feel that way. Let's dig in. To start, I am going to start by discussing problem solving. It's less specific to dairy maybe but I think this will generate some healthy discussion on our skillset revolving around the art of looking at a difficult situation and knowing what to do first, next, and afterwards, even if we've never done it before.

Hey folks — I’m Zaman, and I’m glad to finally get this community rolling. I’ve spent most of my life around dairy farms, and over the years one thing has become really clear: the best ideas, solutions, and breakthroughs usually happen in conversations between people who actually live this work. That’s what this space is for. 🐄 What This Community Is About - Sharing practical experience from everyday farm life - Talking honestly about the challenges we’re all facing — labor, equipment, herd health, workflow, and everything in between - Exploring the tools and systems that help modern dairies run better - Learning from each other’s successes and mistakes - Creating a place where people can ask real questions without feeling judged Nothing fancy. Just a solid place for the dairy world to connect. 🌱 Why I Care About This We’re in a time of big changes — technology, regulations, consolidation, expectation. No single farm or person has all the answers (I sure don’t). But together, we can make navigating all this a little easier. 📣 Jump In If you’re up for it, introduce yourself in the comments: - Where you’re from - What part of dairy work fires you up - What challenge you’re working through right now Looking forward to good conversations and a strong community here. — Zaman Bonus points for photos of your favorite cow!
