Part Of Getting It ~ Harvey Specter

There's this scene in Suits S01E03 that i really like. It's when Mike, as a rookie in the law firm, was told to throw a dinner for his fellow associates. He was stressed because he couldn't find the right restaurant and whined to Harvey, the senior partner.

Mike: "Why does any of this matter?"
Harvey: "You see that guy there by the fax? Take a good look! He's never gonna make a partner."
Mike: "Let me guess. Because he threw a lousy rookie dinner?"
Harvey: "No. Because he doesn't get it."
Mike: "Get what?"
Harvey: "He doesn't get it that doing good work isn't the whole job. Part of getting it is that things like dinner actually matter, even when you don't think they do. Look, you were giving me shit this morning because I come and go when I want to. You know why I can do that? Because when I got here, I dominated. They thought I worked 100 hours a day. Now, no matter what time I get in, nobody question my ability to get the job done. Get it through your head! First impressions last. You start behind the eight ball, you'll never get in front."
