As someone who'd always procrastinated, this book changed my perspective on my journey to dropping the habit. In It Together: The Beautiful Struggle Uniting Us All by Eckhart Aurelius Hughes is the book that leads readers on a journey of self-discovery. The book revolves around various topics but relates to one overarching theme of togetherness. As Homo sapiens, the author believes that we share the same goals and motivations. The book kicks off with a great analogy about starting children and socioeconomic issues, and this was what piqued my interest. Throughout the book, Eckhart navigates key issues faced by people and society. As Master Yoda would suggest, there is no try; you only have to do it. This idea is also present in this book, as the author, with philosophical prowess, has dissected the true meaning of modal auxiliary verbs, which are always present in our everyday conversations. Eckhart highlights why one's usage of them is dangerous. Read this book to discover more about the author's philosophy. 
 
I like how the author writes in a friendly manner. I follow him on X (formerly known as Twitter), so I am used to his kind of content, and it helped me settle into the book better. I like how the author does not sugarcoat realities and offers gritty truths to the reader. As mentioned earlier, the author's analysis of the start of starving children is profound and can help change one's mindset. The author also shares tips that one could leverage to achieve one's goals, so in the end, this book isn't all about philosophy and sociopolitical analysis.
 
This heartwarming self-help deserves a few reads because it didn't sink in at my first read. I found nothing to criticize about the book, as Eckhart's methods are commendable. As for editorial efforts, the book stands out with zero errors throughout its pages, indicating perfection in its editing. Because of these positive reasons, I am rating this book 5 out of 5 stars. I recommend this book to fans of self-help books.
