I don’t know about you, but I have a problem. I am ambitious; I am full of great ideas. I am also, however, extremely undisciplined. But the other day I had an idea. What if I became “my own manager”? Not a bad idea. But how, exactly, do you manage yourself?

Contrary to what the multi-million dollar management training industry says, I don’t think management is rocket science (though I am not saying it is easy). A good manager motivates and supports people, and makes people accountable. In order to manage ourselves, then, we simply need to take concrete steps to motivate ourselves and make ourselves accountable.
