Learning to lead yourself well is one of the most important things you’ll ever do as a leader. The point of leading
is not to cross the finish line first; it’s to take people across the finish line with you. Leading yourself, well means that
you hold yourself to a higher standard of accountability than others do.

Before you can lead others, you must be able to lead yourself. If you cannot lead yourself, others won’t follow,
respect, listen, trust and understand you.
