Is solitude necessary for people to achieve their most important goals?

Solitude is necessary to achieve some goals. Whether they are the most important depends on one’s priorities. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Albert Einstein needed solitude to achieve their goals. My most important goal requires a measure of solitude.

Mozart composed numerous works of musical art, most of which was probably done in solitude. However, we don’t really know if that was his most important goal.

Einstein came up with most of his theories and formulas while daydreaming in solitude. Whether that was his foremost priority isn’t known.

My most important goal is to become like Jesus, which takes a lot of solitary soul searching, prayer, and meditation on Scripture.

Everyone has different priorities and goals, but many of them require solitude.
