It argues for the importance of being alone, so you can silence the barrage of other people's thoughts and listen to your own.

This speech is fantastic. It's about why leaders need to spend time alone, even though most people think of solitude as the antithesis of leadership. It was delivered by William Deresiewicz at West Point. It's as spiritual as it is insightful.
