You may like it, you may not like it. I personally found that being a manager required a lot more motivation to maintain interest compared to coding, architecture, design type work that had been very intrinsically rewarding for a long time (it's what got me to where I was in retrospect, it never felt 'hard').

It may mean that you have to develop skills you are not interested in, but are essential. I've known a handful of developers who transitioned and really enjoy it, so YMMV.
