What is within you?

Have you discovered your greatness? 

"A man who as a physical being is always turned toward the outside, thinking that his happiness lies outside him, finally turns inward and discovers that the source is within him."-Soren Kierkegaard

Where have you been looking? It is within you. Take a step today to see it  and be grateful for your inner beauty.

 Take a look at the new clothing line and order your DSF Gear Now!

Check out my video and learn more about what The Dustin Shillcox Foundation is all about. It's about improving the moment.

I can Turn Myself on... Watch the  video to see how the stimulator implanted inside of me works.

 Dustin Shillcox’s life drastically changed when he was in a car accident August 2010 and sustained major spinal cord damage, a broken upper arm, collapsed lungs, broken ribs, cracked sternum & mild brain injury. Dustin’s complete T-5 spinal cord injury (SCI) left him with no feeling below his mid-chest, causing paralysis from the chest down.

Now paralyzed, and living his life in a wheel chair, Dustin was told he would never again be able to move below his waist again, but after participating in a cutting edge SCI research project, at the University of Kentucky in Louisville, he is now able to move his legs and stand once again. Dustin is living his life to the fullest, sharing his story, journey of overcoming obstacles, and faith while raising funds for spinal cord research. Through his motivational speaking and the Dustin Shillcox Foundation, he is helping to improve the lives of people in wheelchairs.

Dustin delivers an inspiring message about never giving up, and the power of a positive attitude in his speech "What Are You Gonna Do Now?" Inquire about Dustin's availability to speak at your next business meeting, conference, charity event, school, church or graduation event. If you are looking to inspire your crowd to overcome personal challenges, and motivate into action, Dustin needs to be your next call! 307.870.6764

Working For It Wednesday

Are you working for it?

Everyday is a new opportunity to work towards your goals. I want to dance and run again. Standing is a step towards that goal.  Walking will be the next step. Keeping physically fit is going to help me get there. That's why I work out. "What are you gonna do today?" Helen Keller once said "Keep your face to the sunshine, and you will not see the shadows. Keep the faith and know you can do this...

A little snow

I'm from Wyoming and I've spent all of my life dealing with the cold and snow during the long winters. The last 5 years have been a little different, because I've battled the winter from a wheelchair. I'm thankful that I'm able to do all the things I do, even when the easiest thing to do is stay at home or give up, Be thankful everyday, even when the times are tough you never know when it can all change!
