When you're going for a Rolls-Royce quote, do you go the classics from Henry Royce? "Strive for perfection in everything you do." -Henry Royce "Whatever is rightly done, however humble, is noble. (Quidvis recte factum quamvis humile praeclarum.)" -Henry Royce "Take the best that exists and make it better." -Henry Royce Or do you go with something with more unique: "I am like a Rolls-Royce. I can run without an engine, purely on reputation." -Shahrukh Khan Whatever the answer, the unveiling of the 2018 Rolls-Royce Phantom was a sight to behold. Of course Calgary had to get hit with a blizzard, and the roads resulted in being more than a little touch a go than anyone would prefer. It started late, but Million Air made a great host. When you walk in from the blowing snow and trade a jacket and gloves for flutes of champagne and oer d'oeuvres, you know the drive was worth while. This version of the legendary Phantom was the extended wheel base version, over 23' long. It's a land yacht of luxury. The first car to be equipped with laser lights, and so over the top in splendor, most of the private jets sharing the hanger blushed. . . . . . . #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #blessed #Calgary #yyc #thankful #legacy #leader #goals #thankful #wine#legend #luxurycars #luxury #rollsroyce #phantom #wine #yacht (at Million Air Calgary)

"A house is not a home unless it contains food and fire for the mind as well as the body." -Benjamin Franklin The food at One Restaurant is so good it reminded me of family dinners over Christmas, in Edmonton, with family when I was a child. When I was looking up the quote; so as not to paraphrase, I stumbled upon a stellar quote from Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. I feel it relates more to the life of an entrepreneur than most I have ever seen. Truly words to live by: "I'll never, ever be full. I'll always be hungry. Obviously, I'm not talking about food. Growing up, I had nothing for such a long time. Someone told me a long time ago, and I've never forgotten it, 'Once you've ever been hungry, really, really hungry, then you'll never, ever be full." -Dwayne Johnson #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #blessed #Toronto #food #travel #meals #benjaminfranklin #rock #thankful #hungry (at One Restaurant)

As I peel my eyes open and realize it is the last day of the #calgarystampede this year, I can't help but smile. The concerts, the memories, the rodeo, 2:00am golden inn runs, the corporate events, all the breakfasts, guys night, etc. It was an amazing 10 days. But as I try to sit up and I feel the pain emanating from my bones and somewhere behind my eyes, I am forced to come to one undeniable conclusion. You win Stampede. You win. #calgary #calgarystampede2016 #yyc #stampede #memories #workhardplayhard (at Calgary, Alberta)

"I have loved the stars to fondly to be fearful of the night. - from An Old Astronomer to his Pupil. On the waterfront with colleagues, an artificial fire to keep us warm, the waves bouncing to dimmer our senses, and the fine wine to dim our senses more. #entrepreneur #mentorship #finance #yacht #vacation #waterfront (at Waterfront Park)

Inside the pyramid of Summerhill. No lights. No ferrous metals. Aligned due north. Damn near pitch black we climb a narrow stairwell till we reach a room with a circle of chairs. Wine stored in its bowels for up to 30 years before sale. A statue of a golden goddess of some sort looks over us, next to the original wine racks, with bottles still in them. Off limits to everyone but us, the owner, and the, "occassional all female yoga party." The cool room illuminated only by a small skylight. #wine #winery #winetasting #okanagan #entrepreneur #finance #humble #pyramidpower #pyramid (at Summerhill Pyramid Winery)
