be on yourself hard

Would someone say that he is on himself harder?

If I don't do my job properly, I'm on myself harder than anyone else. People don't need to remind me that I've done it poorly.

The only possible reason for arranging those words that way would be poetic or style reasons - if you needed the sentence to end with harder so it would rhyme with a specific word, or if you were trying to mimic an archaic or biblical style.

I think it would still sound autoerotic.
