"The Proverbs 31 woman is a star not because of what she does but how she does itâ€”with valor. So do your thing. If itâ€™s refurbishing old furnitureâ€”do it with valor. If itâ€™s keeping up with your two-year-oldâ€”do it with valor. If itâ€™s fighting against human trafficking . . . leading a company . . . or getting other people to do your work for youâ€”do it with valor. Take risks. Work hard. Make mistakes. Get up the next morning. And surround yourself with people who will cheer you on."
