Simply commit to doing what you can, when you can. By working every day to be the best version of the Proverbs 31 woman you can be. Try developing these 5 habits to help yourself along the way.
Wake up Early
Wake up early. A Proverbs 31 doesn’t let her day to waste away. Make it a habit to be the first to wake up in your house. Believe me it makes the world of a difference.
I love my little one but my day is more productive when I am able to get up first. There is nothing worst than feeling rushed first thing in the morning. An extra 15-30 minutes can make all the difference to your morning routine.
Get Dressed
Get dressed. A Proverbs 31 woman takes pride in her appearance without obsessing over her looks. So get dressed no matter what you have planned.
You don’t have to get dolled up. Just be sure to do your hair (even if it means tying your hair up in a scarf), and put on some clothes – even if it’s a tank and leggings. Getting dressed will make you feel better about yourself. Plus, if you find that you need to run a quick errand your already ready.
Rest but don’t be Lazy
I know it hard and that you gotta get sleep when you can. But remember you can’t catch up on sleep -no matter how hard you try. Before bed just remember to tell yourself you will wake up rested. Mindset is more important than the actual amount of sleep you get.

Get the Hard Stuff Done First
I know your dreading it. But if you get the hard stuff done first, than your more likely to complete your entire to do list. Finishing the hard stuff first will help you feel motivated to keep going.
Take care of your Family
One of the things we admire most about the Proverbs 31 woman is her ability to take care of her family while still maintaining a life outside of her home. Be sure that your family is cared for mentally, spiritually, and physically.
You don’t have to personally do it all. If you’re to busy to cook breakfast grab fruit or bagels instead. Don’t have the time to teach your little one bible stories attend Sunday service as a family. The point is to make use of all your resources so you get the most done without wearing yourself out.
Words of Caution
As women and moms we often feel like we have to do it all. I don’t think the Proverb 31 woman accomplished everything in that verse in one day. From a busy doing too much Momma to another I just want to caution you to enjoy the journey.
It’s okay to have a empty schedule, movie night, or to simply just lounge around. I know it mind bugling to do nothing. But I wanted to share a prayer in hope that it helps you to embrace Rest.
Prayer for Managing Life Pressures
- preoccupied with schedules
- long list of things to do
- for our hearts to be heavy with obligations and burdens
- for us to try to carry the weight of our burdens on our own
- our home chaotic and disconnected
- living a certain lifestyle – American dream
- debt, bills, and credit scores
- possession
- our appearance

Thank you Chellbee for taking the time to remind women, I myself a mother of two, that God comes first and that we should rest and trust in him before any of our duties or worries. Bless you!
Chellbee

I started waking up at 5:00 for the last 2 weeks and has it changed my life!!! It feels so good to have time alone with God and to get things done, even for yourself. I like to read my Bible, pray, find motivating posts like yours ��, workout, get dressed and do my makeup and hair. By that time, my 8 month old is waking up, but I have done so much. It’s a great feeling. Thanks for your post and reminding woman to bring everything to God, especially during this time. God bless!

Yes to early mornings. Well I have back down to waking at 6a now that my little one is a bit older. But those moments alone with God are so precious and reveal so much about him. It's also nice to be able to get ready for your day without having to feed or calm your little one. I pray that your and your family are safe and healthy.
