You cannot deduct your own salary or any personal withdrawals you make from your business. As a sole proprietor, you are not an employee of the business.
You do not report or expense any amounts you paid to yourself or withdrew. And you don't report it as income to you. The net profit or loss IS your personal income in the first place.
