Collaboration vs. Contemplation

Collaboration is great…for getting things done. However, Solitary Contemplation is when inspiration takes place.

Or, does it understand that innovation comes from solitary contemplation and so encourages daydreaming?

For more on this, see “From Solitude” by Michael Harris – St Martin’s Press.
