6 Free E-Books to Read if You're Fat, Love Baseball, and Have Given Up on US Politics

NEW YORK - Jan. 3, 2025 - PRLog -- Hi, I'm Jose Franco. I'm a former Bronx kid who loves baseball, has lost 70 pounds, and writes about everything from the streets of my youth to the absurdities of U.S. politics. If you're here, I'm guessing we have something in common—maybe it's frustration with the system, a love for the game, or the struggle to redefine yourself when the odds are stacked. Whatever brought you, I'm glad you're here.

You've probably clicked past a dozen ads today promising quick fixes—diets, distractions, or oversimplified political rants. This isn't that. My six free e-books won't hand you easy answers, but they might give you something better: a way to confront the hard truths in your life and see the possibilities beyond them.

When I was a kid on Townsend Avenue, baseball wasn't just a game; it was my escape. I coached teams, poured my soul into the sport, and learned how the discipline of the diamond mirrored the discipline needed in life. That same discipline helped me shed 70 pounds—not with gimmicks, but by confronting the habits and mindsets holding me back.

The parallels don't stop there. America feels like it's stuck in extra innings, with no clear way to win. We've grown cynical, divided, and resigned to a political system that seems rigged. But just like in baseball, progress doesn't come from waiting for a miracle—it comes from practice, grit, and challenging the playbook.

That's what my e-books are about: finding resilience, rediscovering curiosity, and building bridges where none exist. Whether it's exploring morality versus incentives in capitalism, the illusion of meritocracy, or embracing optimistic nihilism in an unjust world, each book offers tools for self-reflection and growth. They're deeply personal but rooted in universal struggles—weight loss, the grind of coaching, and navigating a political landscape that often feels hopeless.

But don't just take my word for it. These books are free because their value doesn't come from a price tag; it comes from what you do with them. Maybe they'll spark a change in your mindset, help you reframe how you see your struggles, or even just remind you that you're not alone.

If you're fat and frustrated, love baseball but can't seem to love yourself, or have sworn off politics as a lost cause, these e-books are for you. They're not a cure-all, but they're a start—a step toward questioning the narratives that limit us and imagining what might be possible.
