Advice needing on w2 jobs

Advice Needed.

I feel very stuck at the moment. My goal is to invest in real estate but I'm struggling with the w2 job aspect. 

I currently make money with Uber/Lyft and I flip items to sell online. I have 3 Aussies that keep me from working 40 hours a week. My previous work experience in Mental Health (9 yrs)

My questions are:

1. Do I just need to get a w2 paying ft job somewhere in order to qualify for a loan?

2. Would it be best if I go back to Mental Health so that I have more than 2 years in a certain field?

3. Should I get a job somewhere in the real estate world like Property Management or an Agent?

Thanks in advance for all your help and advice.
