A self leader's goal is to feel accomplished with oneself independently of what life has handed him or her. Not all self-leaders want to be world-famous, have fabulous riches, or hold the most prestigious jobs. Some people may just dream of being calmer being able to focus on their classes at school, finishing a degree, or becoming a better parent. These are as much a self leader's goals as are being able to control his or her finances or manage a company's budget. In other words, what motivates self-leaders are not necessarily grandiose goals or accomplishments: it could be something deeper, more intrinsic.
