HARD PIVOT | Coming February 8, 2022

Apolo Anton Ohno shares his “five golden principles” for overcoming challenges with resilience, creativity, and purpose.

In speed skating, a hard pivot is an aggressive shift of direction that requires courage, practice, and split-second timing. “In life,” says Apolo Anton Ohno, “we all face moments when we must make a hard pivot—times when we must adapt, reinvent, and find renewed purpose in the face of profound changes.” With Hard Pivot, this Olympic gold medalist and bestselling author offers an invaluable guide to anyone facing uncertainty, hardship, and loss of identity in the ever-shifting landscape of our lives.

The world sees Ohno as an athletic superstar. “But inside,” he writes, “I faced challenges like anyone else. The inner voice that once motivated me became toxic, amplifying my fears and insecurities.” Through each crisis—in his athletic career and beyond—he developed new habits and practices that helped him restore inner balance and overcome the odds. Now he shares his most valuable insights: his “five golden principles” for adapting and thriving in the face of chaos, self-doubt, and pressure.

“We’re told that our toughest opponent is ourselves,” Ohno says. “Yet if we only treat ourselves like an obstacle to overcome, even our successes will never feel lasting or meaningful.” With Hard Pivot, he offers more than a method for accomplishing your goals—he helps you develop faith in yourself, unshakable resilience, and a clarity of purpose that will light your path through any challenge.
