[quote=Anonymous]Litigator with 8 years experience here. I echo the PP's comment that having kids helped a lot. Getting into a good financial spot helps a lot too - it helps me know that my family is not dependent on this job, so I can leave if things go south and focus on my kids, which are really the most important thing. The other thing I want to echo is that you have to learn to fake confidence. I have seen lawyers I work with do this again and again. I used to receive the criticism that I over prepared. I realize now that my instincts were good and that I Was making things easier for others on my team. Don't beat yourself up over mistakes. Care less. And stick with it. I love litigation. It is exciting and stimulating in a way that contract work will never be.[/quote]
