FOOD FOR THOUGHT: But does this make us actually feel more lonely and at the same time create a fear of being alone?
The importance of spending time alone shouldn’t be neglected regardless of whether you belong to the category of isolophilia individuals or not because it is a form of self-care.
If you have isolophilia, you’ll spend more time alone than others. If you don’t have isolophilia and are not an introvert, this doesn’t mean you should never seek solitude.
Spending time alone is crucial for our growth, personal development, and self-reflection.
This helps you detach from other people’s opinions, needs, and interests. It helps you let go of everything. Think of it as doing an update or periodical evaluation of your progress and everything that has happened.
Also, solitude helps us filter and get rid of any toxicity we have accumulated while spending time with negative people.
Alone time is not something we should fear or judge. It’s completely natural and desirable.
After all, if you don’t enjoy your own company, how can you enjoy the company of others? Or how can others enjoy your own company?
Everything is interconnected, and it all stems from the relationship we have with ourselves.
In the world of fake ideals and all kinds of manipulation, isolophilia shouldn’t be treated as a condition but a necessity. Sometimes, the only way to find answers and conquer fears is to dig deep within yourself.
Are you at peace with yourself, or do you need the noise to distract you from your own demons? Can you be alone without becoming lonely?
Can you respect other people’s need for solitude if you don’t have one?
Q: I’m interested in chanting, but what do I need to read or learn before I begin?
A: Actually, you don’t need to read much before you start chanting!
Just as scientists conduct experiments to make discoveries, we develop confidence in Buddhism through simply trying it out. Setting up our own personal experiment by chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo each day, even if just for a little bit, is how we discover for ourselves if Buddhism is right for us.
At the same time, it’s a really good idea to study Buddhism as we experiment with chanting as it allows us to understand why we chant and how to best apply it. It also supports our development into becoming better, happier people. By studying Buddhism, we can bring forth the courage and hope to encourage ourselves when we’ve reached an impasse.
How do we really know that our new Buddhist practice is working, though? Thinking of something specific that we want to change as we chant is also a good way to test our practice. At times, the change we want to see is very concrete: finding a new career or mending a troubled relationship. Sometimes it’s simply to feel more secure, hopeful and empowered. Either way, you’ll definitely be able to tell the difference between your life before and after you’ve started practicing Buddhism.

It is important not to work the dough a lot because otherwise the margarine burns.Improve Performance or Elicit Performance
Every individual has potential beyond what he/she realizes at the moment. Realizing this potential and turning it into performance is key in improving/enhancing the performance of an individual.
Tim Gallwey put it as
Performance = Potential – Interferences
Interferences are normally emotional interferences like fear, guilt, worry. Coaching is a powerful intervention in helping people clear the interferences and achieve maximum potential.
I would go as far to say there is nothing like Improving performance. We can only Elicit performance from the potential that is already lying dormant inside the person.
High-performance coaching conversations usually start with finding out people’s “starting points” – their visions or life ambitions. Then, it moves on to explore the directions in which people need to move to achieve those visions, and the steps they need to take now to do so.
Coaching not only impacts productivity, it also positively impacts:
- Confidence and motivation
- Behavior change
- Culture
- Leadership
Benefits
- Improved individual performance
- Improved productivity
- Confident Self-driven individuals
- Develop individuals who see opportunity in all current situations
- Individuals learn to make the best use of the current situation.
Influential thought. But now a days, as far as I understand, people often look at others’ potential than their own to move forward and grow. I hope they would learn this blog one day and realize the difference.

A peer node can go down either intentionally (through the CLI offline command) or unintentionally (for example, by a server crashing). When the peer goes down, the cluster undertakes remedial activities, also known as bucket fixing, as described in the topic, "What happens when a peer node goes down". The topic you're now reading describes what happens when and if the peer later returns to the cluster.
When a peer comes back up, it starts sending heartbeats to the master. The master recognizes it and adds it back into the cluster. If the peer still has intact bucket copies from its earlier activities in the cluster, the master adds those copies to the counts it maintains of buckets. The master also rebalances the cluster, which can result in searchable bucket copies on the peer, if any, being assigned primary status. For information on rebalancing, see "Rebalance the cluster".
If the peer later returns to the cluster, the master adds its bucket copies to its counts (assuming that the copies weren't destroyed by whatever problem caused the peer to go down in the first place). The consequences vary somewhat depending on whether bucket-fixing activity has completed by the time the peer comes back up.
If bucket-fixing has already completed and the cluster is in a complete state, the copies from the returned peer are just extras. For example, assume the replication factor is 3 and the cluster has fixed all the buckets so that there are again three copies of each bucket in the cluster, including the ones that the downed peer was maintaining before it went down. When the downed peer then comes back up with its copies intact, the master just adds those copies to the count, so that instead of three copies, there will be four copies of some buckets. Similarly, there could be an excess of searchable buckets if the returned peer was maintaining some searchable bucket copies. These extra copies might come in handy later, if another peer that's maintaining copies of some of those buckets goes down.
If the cluster is still replacing the copies that were lost when the peer went down, the return of the peer can curtail the bucket-fixing. Once the master has added the copies on the returned peer to its counts, it knows that the cluster is complete and valid, and so it will no longer direct the other peers to make copies of those buckets. However, any peers that are currently in the middle of some bucket-fixing activity, such as copying buckets or making copies searchable, will complete their work on those copies. Since bucket-fixing is time-intensive, it's worthwhile to bring a downed peer back online as soon as possible, particularly if the peer was maintaining a large number of bucket copies.
If the returning
