I love handling team and specially motivating my team by dividing the big target numbers in to small daily targets which is more achievable rather than looking a big numbers making it hard to achieve. Music refreshes me and some times really motivates me when its required. to make it more effective I listen to my favorite sound tracks once in a while and not everyday. Love travelling and Horse riding, biking and Car driving.
