Letter: Solitude brings the best solutions to problems

Published 17 April 2024

From Geoff Harding, Sydney, Australia

You highlight the benefits of time alone. I have found that if you have a problem that requires thought and analysis, solitude is often your best friend. In my career, the best ideas and solutions occasionally arose in conversations with colleagues, but more frequently during a period of solitude, whether in an office, at home or during a long walk (30 March, p 32).
