What's One Thing You HAD to Learn Hand-On?

[Briannan Burns]

I've been studying wholesaling for about a month now & feel as though I know the basics pretty well. I think the main thing stopping me now is analysis paralysis, and getting ahead of myself wanting to jump into rental properties, even though I don't have the capital to do so.

I know that if I keep letting fear hold me back, I'll never get started. I believe experience is the best teacher. 

So, in an effort to jump in & get started in my REI career.. I was curious as to what some experiences you all have had that studying terminology, studying definitions, watching videos, and exploring other educational material just couldn't have possibly prepared you for. What is something (or some things) that you absolutely needed to actually get in there & experience, before you really understood, or felt more comfortable & at ease about, the situation?

Thanks for all your help!
