I recently started a serial ebook, the writing of which is primarily to help me -- but I'm sharing it with the hope that it will motivate others as well. Here's the blurb:

The true, wandering, improvised story of one man's quiet journey from unfit and unhealthy to something better. The chronically slothful author seeks to feed two birds with one seed, breaking out of his cycle of neither exercising nor publishing by sharing his tale of self-improvement. The title, Orbital Velocity, is a metaphor for breaking free from the gravity that keeps him in bed when he should be up, reading when he should be writing, thinking when he should be doing. Snoozing, reading, and thinking are all good and necessary things, but "being in a rut" often means doing the easy things to the exclusion of the higher-exertion or more willpower-intensive activities that make us humans healthy. Orbital Velocity is about breaking the cycle and reaching a point where good-health habits are so ingrained that they take minimal willpower to sustain.

Think of it as a quirky, slow-paced, inspirational exercise video for those who prefer to read.

Feeling like you need a little motivation to get fit and do more of whatever it is you do? A dose of philosophical reflection on the role of physical fitness in our lives? Or maybe you just like reading about people struggling to improve themselves? Check it out over at WattPad.
