Or will someone else be joining you?” A dinner reservation for one person never fails to raise a few eyebrows. I actively choose to spend time alone when possible. But not everyone has the luxury of choosing to be alone, of course, many are forced into oneonone time because they have no one.But for those of us who spend our days surrounded by colleagues in the workplace, our evenings and weekends with family, friends and partners, all the while being constantly bombarded(轟炸) by WhatsApp, social media and , time to ourselves can be a rare treat. Time to yourself not only gives you the chance to do practical things you don’t normally get round to but also the activities your pals don’t want to do. In a less real way, spending time alone also allows—or perhaps forces—you to sit with your own thoughts, to think about things that might normally be drowned out by conversation and the noise of panionship. When you’re alone you get time to think without purpose.It is worth noting that I’m a real introvert（性格內(nèi)向者）, so perhaps sitting alone with my thoughts—refilling my energy reserves—might just be indulging personality traits(個(gè)性) that others don’t have. But I believe more people could benefit from it.Given this constant social conditioning since childhood that we should be surrounded by people , it’s no wonder many hesitate to press forward at the idea of spending time alone—a sign we’ve failed at climbing that social ladder. And if you’re an extrovert who gets their energy from other people, this must be even harder.
