You can't break someone who's comfortable in their own company. Most people can't sit in silence because they're afraid to face themselves. Are you okay being alone, or are you running from it?

The opening remarks about aloneness were fine, but they were clearly lifted straight from a greatest-hits compilation of Eastern gurus—Osho in particular—with no real originality.
Then came the attempt to sound profound by linking aloneness to success, which is where the argument falls apart completely. Aloneness does not produce success. In a world where success is defined by other people, withdrawing from them is a curious strategy, to say the least.
If your emotional intelligence is non-existent, society is not going to reward you. Aloneness might lead to enlightenment, or at least the feeling of it, but mistaking it for a path to success is just wishful thinking dressed up as wisdom.
