Well "Just Start" just implies to start doing whatever you can. If you live in an apartment and have a balcony, grow a tomato plant out of a bucket. Do what is within your means. If you are not physically capable of doing a lot of things, clearing land by hand probably isn't what you want to try and accomplish. But until this year, we haven't used any equipment to clear land with. It doesn't have to be expensive and you don't have to spend a lot of money. Everything is gradual. Just Start to learn and gain experience, save money and go for it a bit at a time. If you go all in and try to simply just be a homesteader overnight, you're right...you're going to fail. But everyone has to start somewhere.
