A saying says: If you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go further, go together.

I remember that during my first years at university, I spent many sleepless nights, and not precisely because I was partying, but because I was wholly devoted to my studies:

  • Reviewing my notes.
  • Researching a topic.
  • Doing some work on the PC.
  • Preparing for some test or exam.

And some of those activities, I remember doing them totally alone, in the tranquility and solitude that staying up late into the night and early morning gives you.

The truth is that I have always enjoyed studying alone because it allows me to concentrate, enables me to spin ideas as finely as I want them, and, of course, allows me to go at my own pace and have the necessary freedom to play with time and with the resources of the students. That I have, without the need to ask or consult with anyone. I am referring to that type of study where one is so focused and immersed that the world disappears, where anyone who interrupts us, no matter how well-intentioned they may have, is liable to earn at least a snort, a bad look, or an inadequate response.
