Reputation is not only for life or for profession it takes a person to a great phase in his life. She quoted a book of Gandhiji "A brief Insights" for how a lawyer should have a reputation. Reading and learning enhances the knowledge of a person. Reading keeps the person to grow higher in their life.Last mantra is accept the criticism given by others. Criticism means always negative but it is a positive way in which it changes the life of a person.
