If you’re interested in creating multiple streams of income, you’re a very wise individual. The key to developing a life without money worries is not only to develop these sources of income, but to find ways to make them passive so they continue working for you even when you’re not working.

This is a lesson I learned a few years back when my work life changed considerably due to a life-threatening illness.

My name is Dr. Ron Daulton, Jr. and my story related to this actually started in 2006. I became a chiropractor in 2000, and I was very fortunate to be able to work with my family after graduating from college.

By 2005, I was very successful in my practice, and because of that, I was asked to become a national lecturer and a coach for a chiropractic practice management company. Basically, I would see patients 40 hours per week, consult with doctors one-on-one another 20 hours per week, and then about 30 weekends per year I would travel and give seminars.

Everything seemed to be going well for me, until the end of 2006 when I experienced some very serious health issues. I had started to experience symptoms like high blood pressure, dizziness, extreme exhaustion, chest pains and numbness in my left arm. I thought I was having a heart attack.

So, I went to my doctor, and she did some testing and discovered that I was not having a heart attack (thank God), but my body was slowly dying because I had developed a very serious type of sleep apnea. At the time, the doctors told me that if they hadn’t found the problem, I would have died in a month from suffocation while I was sleeping.

Because of this, I had to leave the speaking job (which meant that my income was instantly cut in half), and I had to cut back my hours in the practice (which meant that I lost about half of that income also).

I thought I was developing “multiple streams of income” by working these 2 jobs, but I quickly learned that if you’re working a job that requires you to be there in order to earn income, it could be gone in a heartbeat. I had to find out how to develop PASSIVE sources of income.

This led me to Robert G. Allen’s course on developing Multiple Streams of Income. What I learned there was invaluable, and it started me on a new path – I learned about all of the different ways a person could create passive income, and it just happened that one of those methods fit me very well.

I started to discover how to create internet businesses, which has proven to be a great way to earn income passively. Although this was my decision, there are so many methods available to you that you can really discover methods of creating passive income that work for you.

Now, I have the option of working when I want to, and taking time off whenever I want to, which is a wonderful feeling. If you’d like to learn more about Robert Allen’s online course, you can click the following link (create multiple streams of income).
