The key to successfully shift from active to passive wealth is to leverage partnership. Find the right partners that are doing the things that can help you create and grow your wealth. 2.

You will then be able to flip the script on your processes and be more focused on passive income. 3. Time is the most precious resource we have and as we are actively building our business, it is important to be mindful of the time we are investing into and to also have something working on the side to help us create passive income while were building the active income.
