Wholesaler before buy and hold🤷🏾‍♂️

What's up BP family 👋🏾I have a question for the pros in this world of real estate... I've been running through books and podcasts at a alarming rate for about a year as I save and build credit. The hole time I was set on the idea of buying and holding long term for cash flow and love the idea of it BUT now that I'm in position for a deal I actually have to find one. Previously I'd skip over all the wholesale books and podcasts because I felt it wasn't my field and thought it'd be wise to give all my attention to the long term hold method.. with that being said I CANT FIND A DEAL! lol Which makes me want to ask this question: wouldn't it be smarter to become a pro at wholesale 1st so you can rake in deals? If so, shouldn't you next become a pro at flipping so you can know all the cost and labor it'll take to properly turn a property around efficiently? AND THEN wouldn't you be properly equipped to absolutely dominate your local market when it comes to buy and hold investing? P.S. Buffalo, New York in case that matters.
