Shelby’s Inspirational Message For Overcoming Obstacles

Shelby firmly believes that every ‘negative’ event that happens in life can be something that will make you stronger. It’s these ‘negative’ events that Shelby believes helped shape her into a person she’s today.

Here’s Shelby’s message for everyone who needs some motivation in their life; “Be your own light in the darkness. We all fight our own inner and outer battles every day, many of us alone. Sometimes things get tough. Just remember, life isn’t always perfect.

You will never be given a challenge that you can’t overcome. You just have to keep your head up and trudge on. Everything is temporary. Even life itself. Make the most of every second, and consider your hardships a blessing. They make you, you.” – Shelby Dueitt
