THE ENTREPRENEUR CODE

One of the things that Matt Damon attributes to his success is the

support of his family. He has a wife and kids, and makes

spending time with them a priority. In fact, the Damon family has a

rule: they cannot be apart for more than two weeks, no matter

what is going on in their lives. This means quite a bit of travel and

inconvenience, but Matt Damon considers it vital enough to his

success to make it his number one priority.

Other entrepreneurs also value personal relationships. Whether it

is the relationship that they have with their co-workers or

employees, or the kind of people that they choose to be friends

with, they make having and developing those personal

relationships a priority. That includes family, which nearly all

successful people tend to make the number one focus in their life

– above even their business. Here are seven habits in the

category of personal relationships that you should be following.

Habit 34: They don’t mind sharing themselves with
