Ever walked halfway to work and realized you forgot deodorant? How does a habit you’ve done thousands of times just… disappear? In this solo episode of The Prestige Initiative, host Chris Beane challenges the entire self-improvement industry’s obsession with “habits.” He argues that the common advice to “automate your behaviors” is setting us up for failure, fragility, and guilt. Instead, Chris introduces a powerful mindset shift: from building habits to elevating practices. Drawing from martial arts, medicine, and music, he reveals why practices—rooted in intention, presence, and continuous refinement—create lasting change. You’ll get a practical 4‑step framework to transform any habit into a resilient practice, including how to find your deep “why,” use the 5‑second intention rule, prioritize quality over blind consistency, and build a feedback loop for mastery. If you’re tired of breaking streaks and ready to build a life of meaningful engagement, this episode is your roadmap.
