116 Life Ep. 115: How We Reframe Discipline as Devotion
In the latest episode of 116 Life hosts Meah Evans and Ace Harris delve into the multifaceted concept of discipline. They explore how discipline shapes their lives, both creatively and spiritually, and discuss its broader implications on personal growth and community impact.
The Personal Journey of Discipline
Meah and Ace open up about their personal experiences with discipline. Ace reflects on his early days in sports, where consistent practice and a demanding coach instilled a strong work ethic. Meah shares her struggles with discipline during her school years, realizing later in life the importance of cultivating good habits early on. Both hosts agree that discipline is not just about strict routines but about devotion and intentionality in their daily lives.
Discipline in Creativity
The conversation shifts to how discipline influences their creative processes. Ace recounts his journey as a music producer, where he had to push past creative blocks and hone his skills through disciplined practice. Meah discusses her growth as a host and writer, emphasizing the importance of stepping out of her comfort zone to improve her craft. They both highlight that discipline in creativity often requires an investment in oneself, whether through time, effort, or resources.
Spiritual Discipline and Devotion
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to spiritual discipline. Meah and Ace discuss how their faith informs their understanding of discipline, viewing it as an act of devotion rather than mere obligation. They explore the idea of balancing body, spirit, and soul, drawing parallels to the concept of the Trinity. This holistic approach to discipline, they argue, enriches their spiritual lives and enhances their ability to serve others.
Discipline’s Ripple Effect
The hosts emphasize that discipline extends beyond personal benefits. Ace notes how his disciplined approach to life positively impacts his family and community.
