To be alone is sometimes seen as lonely, even sad — a state to be avoided at all costs. But throughout history, some of the wisest thinkers, artists, and leaders have insisted on the importance of solitude. Not as isolation, but as a deliberate act of stepping back from the noise to reconnect with oneself.
