Does having someone around really help with motivation?

I always hear about this trick for neurodivergent people to motivate for cleaning, or doing tasks in general, it usually helps to have someone in their presence in one way or another. Face timing, or just having someone sit in the room will motivate them to be productive. But does anyone else feel the exact opposite? I am more motivated to get things done when there is no one around at all. I think I have a fear of judgement, I realize as I type this out. I just never see others sharing this side, and always see people stating the opposite. So I'm curious how popular my opinion on it is.
