Leveraging Scrappy

Hello everyone, 

I am very new to the world of real estate and I am about 8 months out from being able to jump in (Finishing up College). My question is about sweat equity and using my own physical time to get ahead as I am starting out. 

If you could go back and give yourself any piece of advice, what would it be?

I have heard many people talk about working on their business instead of in it, but what if you lacked the resources to pull that off? Where would you focus the majority of your time in order to grow and scale effectively? What skills would you teach yourself and what type of people would you surround yourself with in order to learn the game?
