The 7UPS in Life

7UP is good.
So, how about the 7UPs in life?

The other day I got to thinking about the many UPs in life that we have. So, I did some brainstorming, and I ended up with 7 UPs. I thought of the refreshing drink 7UP in different flavors. Isn't it cool that we can have our 7UP drinks in different flavors? To me it shows that we have diversity, and we have a choice in life. With that being said, let me explain my thought process of the 7 UPs in life that are beneficial for us to be aware of in order to keep us looking UP in  hopefully the right direction.

1. Our first 7UP is to wake up. 

 There are two different connotations to waking up here. 

First is the obvious to literally wake up after a long night's sleep. 

The second is to wake up after catching yourself living in a monotonous daily routine or deep depression. It is to literally wake up and smell the roses as you realize that there is more to life than just breathing air, eating  and sleeping.

Are you truly awake in life or are you just getting by?

Sometimes people can wake up, but they don't want to get up.

2. Our second 7UP is to get up.

When I catch myself stuck in the daily grind of life, I find myself having to make myself get up. Personally, I think we all do sooner or later. Honestly, we kind of have no choice but to literally get up in order to go about living our daily routines. However, we can try to do so with a smile on our face and goals in mind. In fact, it would be very beneficial to apply my AMPS for spiritual energy at this point. My AMPS stand for Arise, Make Bed, Pray, Study Scriptures. I just love starting my day with my AMPS for spiritual energy because it helps me look forward to waking up and then getting up for the day.

3. Our third 7UP is to dress up.

I find I want to perform my best in life according to how I dress. Now, it really all depends on what your goals are for the day. ( cooking, cleaning, working in the yard, working at an office, etc.)
Remember that you can dress up, but are you dressing for success in what you want out of life? 

I know that I feel better, when I try to look my best no matter what the occasion.

4.Our fourth 7UP is to show up

Yes, it is definitely important to show up, 

especially if we have a job to go to. 

Now the question to ask is are you just showing up to show up and get by? 

This leads us to the fifth 7UP.

5.Our fifth 7UP is to live it up

You can show up in life, but are you living it up? 

Are you truly awake to live life to your full potential? 

Are you living it up with a smile on your face as you strive to go that extra mile?

6.Our 6th 7UP is to never give up

This 7UP in life says it all. We should never give up. 

Please try to always remember that we can get help whenever we want, if we always follow the seventh 7UP in life.

Our seventh 7UP is to always look up

Most importantly, 

are you always looking up for extra strength and guidance 

to help you not give up? 

Remember, we need to always look up to help us:

Wake up

Get up

Dress up

Show up

Live it up

And never

Give up

I just love the 7UPS in life, and I hope you do too.
