Does not having a college degree affect your earning potential/career growth? Or make things more challenging, generally speaking? I've heard that it can make it more difficult to break into specific industries (I would love to hear which ones, if you're familiar with this). Will experience generally be worth more than education?

Why do some people seem to easily thrive and skyrocket in compensation while others struggle and grow stagnant? Natural talent? Hard work? Connections? I know there's no secret sauce, but surely something differentiates the top performers from the rest? Are there any good materials on this topic?

I recently started my very first sales job, and I'm fully convinced I want to stay in this line of work and see how far I can go. My questions are: How do I become a better salesperson and put myself on track for high earnings? What did you do to upskill and grow professionally? I'm looking for tips, books, podcasts, life advice, or anything else that you think could point me in the right direction to keep developing.
