The REAL reason you’re getting objections!
10 Apr 2019 · 20 min
Hannah Keeley argues that objections like "I don't have money" or "I don't have time" are really reflections of your own unaddressed fears and limiting beliefs. You can't help clients overcome what you haven't conquered yourself. She walks through common objections and asks what they reveal about your beliefs around wealth, time, and independence.

All right? It happens all the time, right? No matter what you do, you get objections and it gets frustrating. One objection after another. Well, I'm going to tell you the real reason that you're getting objections, and I bet you all that can change. Here's the big question. How are these average, everyday moms getting radical results in their lives? How are they able to transform their health, money, families, homes, and have fun doing it? The trick. Check this out. We're not average. I'm Hannah Keeley and I'm going to spill our secrets and answer your questions right now in that mom show. Okay? So we're talking about objections, and just like, you know, give me a little whoop, whoop. If you repetitively get objections, like, you can just do that to yourself. Like, you know, just, just, just so that we're, like, actively spending time together and you're a part of this. Okay? But for a lot of people in businesses, and I. I especially see it in moms, for a lot of people who are growing their businesses, they get the same objections over and over. I'm going to tell you why you get those objections and how to turn it around. But here's the big but. Actually, I might be sitting on it, but. No, here's the big but. You have to be ready to go into a place that may create a little anxiety for you. Okay? But that's just growth. You know, growth means we're moving forward. And although it's painful, although it's uncomfortable, although it's scary, we do it anyway. Right? That's what growth is. So here's what I want to propose to you. I'm not saying this is the truth. I'm just saying it's my truth. And it may be your truth, and I've seen it in a lot of my clients, so I'm not going to say, like I said, this is the truth, but I want you to hold this idea and kind of hold it as a mirror to see if it is true for you. And sometimes that means taking a good hard look at who you are and what your belief system is and how you let that belief system determine how you behave. So here it is. The reason you're getting the same objection over and over again is because you haven't conquered that same objection in your own life. The reason you're getting the same rejection is because you haven't conquered that rejection in your own life. Now, you cannot, as a business leader, as any kind of leader, you cannot lead a person where you've never gone. You cannot do it. It's not possible. You can't lead a person. For example, if I'm, like, on a ropes course and I've got someone leading me on the ropes course, that person had better done that rope course a lot of times, because I don't want to be following someone who. Who doesn't know what they're doing. If I am climbing a mountain and the person that I am. Was it belayed to. Is that the word? That I'm like, hooked with a rope to that person? I trust that person because they climbed this mountain over and over and over. So I can be hooked to that person. I can be belayed to that person. I don't know. I don't even know if it's called that I can be hooked to that person because that person has already gone where I'm attempting to go myself. So you cannot help a person overcome an objection that you've never overcome in your own life. For example, if you keep getting the same rejection, I don't have the money. I don't have the money. I don't have the money. That's not true. First of all, that's a. That's false. That's not even a real objection. That's a stall tactic. Because actually, you get more money when you do invest in a business. Like, that's. Well, yes, you serve people by investing in a business, but also you get recompense for it. You get. You get money for it. So part of growing is bettering your whole life and money as part of that. Initially, it may not be, but if you're getting that same objection, I don't have enough money, then chances are you are not investing money in yourself. Let me give you an example. I'm going to. I always tell you, like, my horror stories. Okay, I'm going to tell you another one of my horror stories. Remember I told you before that I started seven home businesses? Never made any money. I started seven home businesses. Okay? So one of those home businesses was a. Selling a contraption that you hooked up in your washing machine. I don't even know what it is for. It was like to reduce drying time and make the water better and your clothes cleaner and you don't have to use detergent or something like that. And I was. I was like, yes, this is gonna make so much money. I'm gonna be a distributor. I'm gonna sell these. Guess what? See this girl here? This girl? This girl who's talking? You hear this girl? I didn't buy one. I didn't buy one, they were like $700. I'm not gonna buy it because I'm like, I'm fine with using, like, you know, store brand laundry detergent. I don't want to buy this thing. How many of those lovely laundry contraptions do you think I sold? Like, just, you know, let's just put it out there. How many do you think I sold? 0. I sold 0 because I didn't buy it myself. So is there any integrity? No, there's no integrity there. I'm trying to sell something that I don't believe in myself. How would, how would I ever be able to do that? So that was the objection. Like, I would try to sell it. Everyone would be like, well, I don't really need it right now. Thanks, but no, we're not, we're just gonna, we're not gonna get it right now. We're just gonna stick with what we have. And, you know, kept on getting the same objections, wondering, what am I doing wrong? Am I saying the wrong things? Do I not know how to close? Do I not know? Am I not following the script correctly? Am I not following up enough, y'? All, I'm telling you right now, the scripts, the closing techniques, the strategies that none of that means beans. If you don't even believe in it in the first place. If you don't even believe in it, like, it's, it's pointless. So you can't sell something that you won't buy yourself. You've got to be sold before you can sell. You've got to be sold before you can sell. So if you keep getting the objection now, now listen, this is because you may say, well, I already invested in it because I use MOM Master University. I use the coaching programs or I use the oils or I use the coffee or whatever. No, my friend, you're equating your investment to the investment of the people you're leading. That's not right. If you are a leader, your level of investment has to be here before you can bring anyone up to any, any kind of level. It has to be higher than the level you expect of your potential client or your potential customer, your potential teammate or whatever. Hey, mama, we'll get right back to the podcast, but did you know there is an entire online university just for moms? If you're ready to get radical results in your life, just go to mommastery.com, that's M O M M A S T-E-R-Y dot com. Make sure you check it out and take your free quiz again. That's mommastery.com M-O-M-M-A-S-T-E-R-Y.com now back to the podcast, When's less time. I did that. You've got to ask yourself that. Because if you think you can just like invest in $20 of oils every month and expect another person to come alongside it at the same level, that's wrong. You need to say, okay, I'm going to invest in twenty dollars of oils every month as well as this five thousand dollars training program, as well as this two thousand dollar conference, as well as you've got to be training your yourself if you're going to lead other people. And here's the deal. When you start investing in yourself at a higher level, then you will have such integrity behind that smaller purchase. Just your energy alone will sell it. You, you can have no script, you can have no closing strategies, you don't have the right follow up techniques. It's just your energy of like wait, don't you understand this? Like this is, it's so, so cheap for the value you get. Like oh my gosh. And this is true on every level. So if you're getting the same objection of I don't have enough money, you've got to look at yourself and maybe that's an objection you have not conquered in your own life. Maybe you're still going through Walmart thinking I don't have enough money. Maybe you're still paying the bills every month saying I, I don't have enough money. Maybe you're still looking at all these cool programs and certification programs saying I don't have enough money. So when people come to you, what do you think their objection is going to be? I don't have enough money. And you are totally unprepared to help them overcome that objection. Because you haven't overcome that objection. And you can't lead anyone where you haven't gone yourself. You can't help someone kill a giant when you haven't killed that giant with your own stones and slingshot. You can't do it. You don't have the techniques, you don't have the belief, you don't have the core energy belief system to do that. And that's just one objection. But all these objections, I want you to look at objections as a mirror that God allows you to look deeper into yourself and see what areas you have not overcome yet. Okay? Every objection. So if you get the objection, oh I don't have enough time, I don't have enough Time to do that. Use that as a mirror. Look at yourself. Do I complain about my time? Do I not make up my bed because I don't have enough time to make it up? Do I don't. Do I not plan out my meals because I don't have enough time to plan it out? Do I not spend time with my children because I don't have enough time? I'm too busy on Facebook and Instagram and too busy flipping around channels. Okay, that. You guys know that I know a mom's life is very busy, but Also, everyone has 24 hours. So if you keep getting that same objection, look how you are managing your time. But better yet, or deeper still, look at the belief you have about time. Do you wake up thinking that you don't have enough of it? Do you go to bed wishing you had more of it? Do you make excuses with the things you can't do using time as an excuse? I don't have enough time. I don't have no time. I can't do that volunteer thing. I don't have enough time. Because you will get that same objection if you get the objection, oh, I don't need that. It's too confusing. What else in your life are you casting off because you don't need it or it's too confusing? I don't need to go to that Bible study, or I don't think I can, like, get my degree. It's just too confusing. Or I can't understand that, or I'm not going to follow through with that because it's just too confusing. I'm not there. I'm not there yet. So your objections, don't look at them like, man, I got an objection again. Look at it like, oh, let me look at myself and see why I got that objection in the first place. It'll reveal so much. Now I'm gonna step on some toes, okay? But I've got to put this out there. If you keep getting the same rejection, my husband won't let me, or I need to talk to my husband, or my husband doesn't want me spending the money, or my husband. I already agreed that we can't do that. I need you to ask yourself, am I using my husband as an excuse not to make bold decisions on my own? Do I feel like it is my responsibility to keep him happy and safe? Because if you do, it's not. That's not your responsibility sometimes. And I would get that objection a lot until I realized, you know what? I don't. We're partners here. I don't have to tiptoe around things. Like, I am independent enough to make decisions. And here's the thing, like, to give my husband the freedom to get mad. And that's not my job, to protect him from emotions that he is totally free to express. So, like, I would, you know, invest in a program and say, honey, I. I spent like, you know, $5,000 on this program. And he'd be like, wow, you know, I don't. I don't know, is that the right decision? Or, man, you shouldn't have done that, and give him the permission to be, like, frustrated or confused or angry so that we can go to a deeper level in our marriage and say, well, let me tell you why I did it, and let me explain this to you and in total love and total sincerity and total honesty as grown person adult speaking to another grown adult in a partnership. Because I think I can grow into a better person. I think I'll be not just a better wife for you, but a better woman for myself and a better mom for my children. I think by doing this, I'm going to be able to find skill and ability that I didn't even know I had. I think this could lead to having a lucrative income. So that's one thing that we have to ask ourselves. Are we still seeking approval and permission from our spouses to. In order to avoid stepping into a place that's scary and unfamiliar? Because sometimes we'll do that and we'll secretly like, oh, I hope my husband says no. Because it gives us a reason, like a valid reason to say, oh, I can't at this time, when really it's our fear saying, please pull me back, because I don't even know what this next step looks like. So that's one thing that I just. I wanted to remind you of, that this is the real reason that you're getting objections. The real reason you're getting objections is because you haven't conquered that objection for yourself. I have conquered every single objection you can think. Because every objection is a fear talking. And see it that way. They're not. They're not, like, turning you away. It's actually an objection is just a decorative cover that you place on a fear motive. So when you allow objections, when you object to things in your own life, you will get that same objection from the people that you're trying to lead. And it's a great. It's like a great compass to tell you where you need to grow. But you can't lead anyone where you haven't gone yourself. So get the boldness and get the strength and just face fear right in this ugly face and stomp it to the ground whenever you get those objections. Because let it show you something in you where you need to grow. You've got to be able to grow because you can't lead a team, you can't do sales, you can't, you can't. You can't even lead people to Jesus. If you still have objections to, to serving God, you can't do it. So think about that. Think about that. That's the real reason you get objections. Because there's another level you have to go in your personal growth. There's something you are objecting to and that's going to pull you back every single time. So just take a quick inventory. What do most people tell you as a excuse or reason which is actually an excuse that they cannot invest in themselves? Think about that. Because it's always covering up a fear. And a fear is a place where you need to grow your belief system. So do you not believe it'll really work for you? Do you not believe that money is plentiful? Do you not believe that you are a courageous, strong woman who can make independent decisions herself? Do you still think that that time is something that's limited for you? So what is it? What is it that you can, you can hear these objections and it can turn a mirror on you and you can do some incredible, incredible personal growth to step outside yourself and say, oh my goodness, this is why it's time to conquer that fear. Because yes, you'll get objections, but let them serve you. Learn from them, move forward through them, do the growth through them. And remember to keep conquering objections so you can help your tribe conquer them every single day. Because remember, there ain't nothing wrong with making money, honey.
