A Different Starting Point for Change

© 2026 Luis A. Marrero, Boston Institute for Meaningful Purpose

Over the past weeks, I’ve been describing why so many good efforts in change, leadership, and development quietly fade.

The issue is rarely intelligence, commitment, or technique.

The issue is where we begin.

Most approaches start with behavior: what to do differently.

Meaningful Purpose Psychology starts one layer deeper — with how we understand what is happening, why it matters, and what is actually guiding us before we act.

Module One of the Meaningful Purpose Practitioner Program is designed to help you cultivate meaning lucidity:

a steadier capacity to notice assumptions, inherited narratives, and blind spots that shape decisions beneath awareness.

When that foundation becomes clearer, three things tend to follow:

• Greater steadiness in your own work

• More responsible judgment with others

• More humane and durable outcomes in real situations

If you work with people, leadership, or change — and you’ve ever felt uneasy about why good intentions so often fall apart — this may be a conversation worth exploring.

Our next Module One cohort begins on February 12, 2026.

It is cohort-based, application-required, and intentionally paced.
