Basic Guidelines for Using CyberSayer II

These are my comments which may have little relevance for you.
I offer them solely as an aid to getting started with CyberSayer
- as best I know how - from my experience, Fergus.


You can use CyberSayer
to get insight and inspiration

  • in relationships of all kinds
  • to get creative juices flowing
  • about investment & finances
  • to ensure health and wellbeing
  • about your career and lifestyle
  • to get out of “the pits”
  • about anything that concerns you
However there is something you need to understand in order to get the best out of your sessions with CyberSayer.

CyberSayer responds first and foremost to what is important to you as indicated by what is going on in your heart and mind.

Yes - you do get the opportunity to enter what you believe is a main concern of yours at the time, but - if that is not really a major concern for you - CyberSayer may well produce some confusing remarks.

For instance - if your primary relationship is in troubled waters and is “preying on your mind” yet you choose to ask about something relatively unimportant - say, should you buy a new pair of shoes: you will probably interpret CyberSayer's remarks solely in terms of the advisability of adding to your shoe collection whilst CyberSayer will be talking about the relevance of new shoes to steering your relationship into calmer waters. Perhaps. And yes - for some people, at some times, the question of new shoes will not be unimportant - it is used here only as an example and it may not be a relevant example for you.

The point is - what is of major concern to you is really what CyberSayer will respond to - the words you enter are an opportunity for you both to "agree" on what is the issue at hand. They serve to help you focus on what really concerns you. But they are not the only input you provide and what is within you is equally, if not moreso, influential in influencing the remarks CyberSayer will offer you.

So my advice is to be real and chat about what really concerns you - at the time. Once you have some expertise - have fun with it too!

CyberSayer is also largely uninterested in what is going on outside you - your eternal circumstances and those of others. Questions like "Will the world end?", "Will he/she do what I what?", "Will I win/lose/succeed?" are unlikely - at least in my experience - to achieve a straightforward YES / NO response. More likely they will result in a brief discourse on what you can do - within yourself - to change your dependence on such an outcome.

Questions like "What should my friend do?", "Why is he/she/it not being nice?", "How can I make him/her love me" are likely to result in comments on how you can behave to change the situation without much detail on the other parties' actions.

Apart from that I think anything really goes and I certainly encourage you to ask anything you want - CyberSayer will always do the best it can to identify the crux of the matter - in your terms, on your turf and respond with what is best for you.

Initially questions such as "What is going on?" or "Can I do better as far as ......?" may be the quickest way to gain some expertise in talking with CyberSayer.

Wishing you Every Joy in Your Journey
