What is the greatest obstacle to fulfillment, success, and happiness? “It's the belief that your current situation, whatever it is, has the power to determine your future,” teaches Fleet Maull.
Before he was a revered meditation teacher, Maull served 14 years in prison for drug trafficking. During that time, he embarked on a path of transformation and service that has helped tens of thousands from inmates to hospice patients to top-level business leaders. With Radical Responsibility, he invites us to experience for ourselves the life-changing journey from victim to co-creator.
“When we escape the belief that we are limited by our circumstances or others, we access the full power of our authentic selves,” writes Maull. Through teachings, practices, and Maull’s deep empathy for those in challenging life situations, this step-by-step book shows us how.

Daniel Goleman
author of Emotional Intelligence
“It's a rare privilege to read the work of someone who walks the talk as fully as Fleet Maull. The transforming wisdom of his extraordinary life experience—from dharma practitioner to prison inmate to spiritual mentor—suffuses every page of this wonderful book. Engaging, pragmatic, and deeply insightful, Radical Responsibility shows us all how to take responsibility for the habit patterns of our lives. With personal stories, psychological research, and a range of meditative exercises, Fleet illuminates the possibilities of living a freer and more joyful life. Highly recommended.”
Joseph Goldstein
author of Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Awakening
“Fleet Maull’s creative and time-tested framework for reining in your own mind’s inflammatory, self-destructive, imprisoning tendencies can be powerfully freeing―and healing. All you need to do is put it into practice. He guides you in exactly how to do that and sustain it for life. You couldn’t be in better hands or have a more capable and authentic guide.”
Jon Kabat-Zinn, PhD
author of Full Catastrophe Living and Mindfulness for All
“At once inspiring and practical, this book masterfully shows us how to thrive in the face of adversity. Based on insights from ancient wisdom traditions, modern neuroscience, contemporary psychology, and his own remarkable journey from maximum-security prison inmate to transformative teacher, Fleet Maull provides a wealth of accessible tools anyone can use to discover their own basic goodness and engage more fruitfully in the world. With warmth, skill, and humility, he provides step-by-step instructions to help us courageously face reality, heal our wounds, and live richer, happier, more fulfilled, and effective lives.”
Ronald D. Siegel, PsyD
assistant professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School and author of The Mindfulness Solution: Everyday Practices for Everyday Problems
“Fleet Maull has lived a life of transformation. Emerging from a drama-filled life that led to imprisonment, he knows deeply what I call the ‘Dreaded Drama Triangle’—originally the Karpman Drama Triangle—and its roles of Victim, Persecutor, and Rescuer. His journey of awakening to his essence as a Creator should be an inspiration to all. He is an exemplar of TED* (*The Empowerment Dynamic®) and, through Radical Responsibility, he serves as a Challenger and Coach to readers to become Creators in their own lives.”
David Emerald (Womeldorff)
author of The Power of TED* (*The Empowerment Dynamic)
“I’ve been teaching about the importance of looking at everything through the lens of personal responsibility for decades. Taking personal responsibility is the only ‘above the line’ perspective. Anything else—blaming, shaming, or justifying—is decidedly ‘below the line,’ and will only hold you back and limit your opportunities for advancement and growth. Fleet addresses this issue beautifully in Radical Responsibility, and I wholeheartedly endorse his work.”

A Manual for Living with Integrity.
I am in awe of this book. So much so, I need to take it slow...it’s so rich, and requires a deep engagement. Even after having done multiple trainings with Fleet, I find the book to be extraordinary and completely fresh. It is a manual for enjoying a healthy life by growing our own wakefulness and mindfulness, and then learning that critical step – how to apply it.
With great warmth and insight, Fleet unveils the incredible potential we have to extend this wakefulness with bravery and intelligence. After decades of research and contemplation, he provides clear evidence that the awareness sparked from mindfulness training can naturally ignite a flurry of further developments in our lives…and there is no limit as to how far this awareness and insight can expand.
This is an important book; it’s a powerhouse. There is hardly a page that doesn’t make me want to call friends to tell them about it. But that is secondary; what is primary is that I can take these teachings and apply them today. Fleet has a special magic—I can’t think of any other teacher who can weave together such an authentic and practical synthesis of the power of traditional meditation teachings and the brilliant insights of cutting-edge researchers, psychologists and philosophers.
In these perilous times, this book offers optimism and clear opportunity for change. Here, the spiritual and the practical are all rolled into one. It is a manual for living with integrity.
Radical Responsibility is a gem, and a gift to our world. I recommend it highly.
