And a thick skin is very crucial especially in litigation. You aren't going to just be scolded by your seniors, but also by the judiciary and your learned friends at times. I remembered when I started practising, there was this senior partner who will instruct me to attend PTCs/CCs where there will be an upcoming dressing-down by the judges due to non-compliance of directions. And the non-compliance stems from the fact that the partner sat on the file after collecting the deposit and nothing was done on his part.
