Overcoming the FEAR of Rejection, Today and Forever

Ending the Fear of Rejection

You get rejected, and even in a “small way,” a lot of stuff happens to you…all at once. All of it bad.

The fear of rejection, dealing with rejection, overcoming rejection…all part of the life nightmare. It’s pain that is rarely matched by anything that happens in the “physical realm.”

We all hate it.

You feel hurt, anxious and often meaningless.

Stop right there.

Hurt, anxious and meaningless.

That’s a recipe for a mess and it happens to salespeople, entrepreneurs and even people like you and me. Sometimes you might experience it every day.

It’s this very real and profound pain that explains in part why “good salespeople” are among the highest paid individuals in the world.

This is so important. Salespeople should get hazard pay for successfully dealing with rejection and all the challenges that surround it!

This article is about overcoming the fear of rejection and rejection itself. Aren’t salespeople and entrepreneurs the real “risk takers” in life? Aren’t they really people who are willing to go up against hurt, anxiety and meaninglessness?

One single instance of rejection, is all it takes to strip people of their self-control (self regulation) and self-esteem.

Rejection is Kryptonite to humans.

But no one talks about rejection outside of the sales profession….and those in the sales profession, especially in management, really don’t understand rejection, it’s impact and what to do about it.

When was the last time you had a long talk with someone about how rejected you felt?

Exactly.

People talk about the flu, the election, the weather. But REJECTION?

If you are talking about being rejected their MUST be something wrong with you! …right?!

Yes.

The disease is best cited as “Common and Normal Human Experience”

And rejection feels the same for almost everyone. When someone rejects you, you don’t just feel undesirable to THAT person, you feel undesirable to EVERYONE, and this is where a lot of people fall apart.

There’s a lot of reasons people reject other people.

Think about what causes YOU to reject someone else. It could have something to with…

  • Attractiveness or Appearance
  • Nasty Personal Habits
  • Behavior Not Conforming to the Other Person’s Expectations/Norms
  • Intelligence (High or Low) etc.

And then there’s lots of reasons people FEEL rejected when nothing actually happens but the PERCEPTION of rejection is there.

We’ll get to all of these.

When I was in “outside sales” (selling that occurs outside of your office, not out in the garden) I had to have ways of picking myself “up” after a “turn down.”

Typically, I’d get back in my car and pop a familiar inspirational voice on CD into my head. The University on Wheels was more than that, it helped me get my mind off what just happened and helped me mentally get into a frame of mind that would be productive for my next call.

It’s probably no surprise to you that I booked appointment after appointment with no time in between. Time in between appointments made no sense. All it could do was cost you money and give you time to ruminate about what just happened!

The math is simple:

You make a sale or a meeting goes well, and you experience a nice dopamine rush.

The meeting goes poorly and you feel rejected.

Pain is bad enough. Thinking about it while experiencing it just magnifies it to dramatic.

After getting pounded on by a potential client, it was good to hear the words of my in-auto-mentors. I was a good person. I mattered. Without salespeople no one else gets paid, including the guy who just turned you down.

The immediate reinforcement of, what on some days could be fragile beliefs, was a great help to me.

In fact…I always wondered what they did before the university on wheels….

Those guys were heroes…but this is just one small band aid for dealing with rejection that is bleeding out!

What’s one common response to rejection that helps reduce the pain…a little?

“That guy was a moron.”

For example, derogating the other person is a strategy that could sometimes help. (…And believe it or not, that’s one method high self-esteem [HSE] individuals use!)

Of course it’s not just salespeople that get rejected. Sometimes it’s the guy asking for the date. (Which is essentially making a sale.) Or perhaps the guy asks for some “time” tonight.

When that girl says “no,” it stings.

You leave the bar (in the case of the date) or the house (in the case of the “time” rejection). Getting away from the rejection in physical terms can help. It can also magnify t

he pain in certain contexts, right?

Sometimes people want to push harder. Regardless of context once you’ve heard no a few times…your emotions get the best of you and it becomes difficult to calculate the best, next step!

“But really, you should go out with me,” or “Oh come on, we never have sex.” And sometimes that might get the result, but it could also make things worse later.

Now, READ THIS CAREFULLY….

I want to talk about derogation for a minute. (“She’s an idiot.”)

Responding With Derogation Toward the Rejector

It turns out that when people possessing HIGH self-esteem are given negative feedback, they are MORE LIKELY to question the competency of the other person. “Who the heck are they to say that to me/judge me/etc.”

This is interesting because you might feel bad about derogating another person. Obviously it gets old after awhile, but, in the near term it can help. Let’s look a bit more closely

The Rejected Difference Between Those Who Possess High Self-Esteem Vs. Low Self-Esteem

People with LOW self-esteem who receive negative feedback from people tend to still hold a HIGH opinion of the person giving the feedback (good or bad).

Maybe, just maybe, “that guy” or “that girl” needs to be an idiot more often when rejected. I don’t feel good about the response, but it definitely has it’s upside.

It might just be a better explanation of why they didn’t do business with/go out with you, than other responses. And it appears the response keeps self-esteem higher.

OK PAUSE

What kind of beliefs do people with high self-esteem have about themselves?

It seems there are two that matter in this specific discussion about rejection.

1) They are superior.

2) Perceived inclusion.

And, men more than women tend to deny that rejection is happening to them when others take to other activities and they aren’t invited along, but not shunned, either. Women (on average) on the other hand, wonder what they have done wrong that they didn’t get invited or included at a higher level.

Now What Happens to Self-Esteem When Someone is Rejected?

Generally speaking, people with high self-esteem don’t take the blow as hard as those as those with low self-esteem.

And interestingly, those with high self-esteem take the positive feedback of others much better and it has more impact on them than does the same feedback on people with lower self-esteem.

Those programs you listen to in the car help.

AND, they help higher self-esteem people more!

Now all of this is fine and dandy at the conscious level of thinking, but what about the unconscious level?

Rejection changes you and me. It causes us to behave differently.

Rejection causes maladaptive behavioral patterns to begin and become more deeply ingrained.

WARNING: The REAL Rejection Pain Happens at the Unconscious Level

It’s true.

Kevin Hogan on Rejection and its affect on SuccessRejection changes people’s experience of LIFE.

Rejection changes people’s experience of life…

But all is not equal in the experience of life’s problems.

For example, high self-esteem people feel a lot better about themselves than low self-esteem people.

And, it appears that humans have an emotional bank account or what social psychologists call a “sociometer.” Basically the more self-esteem in the bank account, the less painful dealing with rejection will be. The less self-esteem, the more likely the rejection is to deplete the bank account.

There is a hindsight logic here. If you feel good about yourself because you are self validating, you might not need others to validate you as much. And yes, as you may have guessed, people with low self-esteem who are rejected tend to stay away from other situations where they will get rejected again…and more.

Salespeople who get rejected don’t want to get rejected again and again…and…salespeople who have low self-esteem quit making appointments, find ways to not make it to appointments and so on…

The guy who has been rejected five times for a date better have good self-esteem or he will quit right there.

The rejection they get today “generalizes” to other contexts as well.

And as far as our HSE (high self-esteem) friend? He mostly compartmentalizes the rejection to that one experience or context. He still believes he’s good and worthy in other areas.

And the downward spiral continues as the LSE (low self-esteem) guy takes the rejection personally and permanently, expecting rejection, lack of acceptance and failure at every turn.

Even more importantly, LSE’s have less self-efficacy (that means believe they don’t control their outcomes in life). That means in the face of rejection or failure the LSE is far more likely to give up.

Priming and Persisting in the Face of Adversity

In a VERY COOL study (Sommer and Baumeister) a group of people were primed randomly with thoughts of acceptance, rejection or misfortune. Then they were given a tough task.

The HSE’s and LSE’s worked about the same amount of time on anagrams that were very difficult (impossible) to solve when they were primed with acceptance or misfortune.

Those people primed with rejection?

Legend Point: The HSE’s worked TWICE AS LONG as they did on the other task. The LSE’s worked HALF as long as they did on the other task.

Persisting in the face of difficulty is correlated to self-esteem.

You and I both know that there is another important thing about rejection I haven’t talked about yet…

When Does a Rejected Person Respond with Aggression?

Aggression. Anger. Hostility.

There are some surprising findings in the research that’s been done surrounding these types of reactions to rejection.

When someone is rejected in the context of being included, they get less angry than when experiencing other types of rejection.

When someone is dealing with a superiority rejection (we’re/I’m better than you), they become more angry.

When people are rejected and feel undeserving of the rejection, they become very angry.

The narcissist can get very angry and aggressive quite easily.

Expectation and Rejection

Interestingly, when people simply EXPECT TO BE REJECTED or perceive rejection, they often become hostile and aggressive.

When will the aggression be more likely to occur?

Aggressive behavior occurs when the person really wants to be accepted but expects to be rejected.

And in the great paradox:

Rejection-sensitive men typically only become violent when they have a high investment in a relationship…

(He’s only going to go ballistic if he really cares…how’s that for a life challenge…)

So what’s up here?!

High Investment in a Relationship

It turns out that when people are heavily invested in their relationship (it’s very important to them) and they feel almost always in the glow of the halo (importance) from the other person…they drew closer to their partner when a slight push away would occur.

Conversely when one partner felt typically unimportant (not in the glow of the halo) they create distance between themselves and the other person. It is in these relationships that aggression was more likely to occur.

Those who generally don’t feel loved by someone they love very much, are more likely to retaliate when rejected.

BUT WAIT

…there is more…

People with low self-esteem are more likely to have fewer good things to say about their partner. People with HSE are more likely to see the halo…

Those with lower self-esteem are much less likely to forgive and more likely to not communicate for periods of time.

We all have been in a relationship…or are in one now…where the partner says, “yesterday/last week/last month/last year/last decade you did X and I’m still angry about what you did…..”

Right…that conversation…

OK, want to know if you have the right amount of HSE?

How to Deal with ‘Unforgiveness’ in Relationships

HSE people respond to that statement(s) with “yes but I love you, I care, I want us to get better.” Those with LSE give the silent treatment, ostracize (walk out), etc.

Want a quick fix in warding off potential rejection from partners (based on research)?

Make sure your partner KNOWS THEY are desirable. (TELL THEM IN A COOL WAY)

It will save YOU and improve acceptance on both sides.

BUT there is some murkiness in the high self-esteem waters!!!

Performance-Based Rejection

Remember that superiority is strongly correlated to HSE and new research shows that after rejection or threat of rejection, HSE’s can become antagonistic especially when the threat is in the area of successful performance based behavior.

In other words, “you suck at business honey”, “why can’t you get a better job”, “John the neighbor guy is a lot better at football than you are”…. …causes HSE people to become antagonistic…especially in relationships that aren’t as close as they could be.

For people with HSE, if you can keep them from self-aggrandizing behavior, they will move closer in a relationship and make bids to have more closeness.

Kristin Sommer is one smart doc. Along with Yonata Rubin at the U of NY, they came up with one VERY COOL study that turned out to give us some potent lessons.

Intimacy Building Exercise and What it Shows About Rejection

1) Participants were paired with another and took part in an intimacy building exercise with them for 10 minutes. (Learn as much as you can about them.)

2) After the 10 minutes were up, they separated and filled out an evaluation of the other person. (feelings of closeness, similarity, want to be friends, etc.)

3) All participants switch partners around the room for another 3 minute intimacy building exercise.

4) When finished, all 3 minute participants were given the feedback forms “from their partner” (actually every participant in the room receives a BOGUS FEEDBACK FORM THAT IS EITHER REJECTING or ACCEPTING as far as liking and desire for friendship). Other items were all checked off as “moderate” for everyone…

(so at this point, half the group has seen they were rejected, and half the group sees they were desirable for a friendship)

5) Everyone was asked to write down how much they liked their first 10 minute partner. Everyone also evaluated the essays as far as writing style and so forth.

Finding? Those who were “rejected” by the 3 minute partner, predicted much more negative social expectancy from the 10 minute partner than those who were “accepted” by the 3 minute partner.

This finding is not intuitive. After having a pretty good experience with the first person then a crummy one with #2, you might have guessed they’d feel better about the first partner. But what happened was the opposite. The more current experience made the person feel more negatively toward the first. What else did we find out?

Other Findings: HSE vs. LSE

When participants felt close to their partner, rejection had no affect on whether they thought they were liked by the other partner.

People who were rejected rated the essays more harshly than those who were accepted.

People who were accepted rated the essays better.

In low intimacy relationships, HSE produced HARSH evaluations! The guy with high self-esteem is perfectly happy to shred people he isn’t connected with.

In high intimacy relationships, HSE produced more positive evaluations!

And from more complex analysis we learn some pretty amazing facts:

1) HSE vs. LSE manage their relationships DIFFERENTLY following a rejection.
2) HSE criticize those they don’t care much about.
3) HSE praise those they care about.
4) LSE praise those they don’t care about.
5) LSE criticize those they care about.

In general Sommer concludes, “HSE may respond to rejection threat by adopting defensive strategies that allow them to feel that they are among the most desirable, whereas those low in self-esteem may adopt strategies that reassure them that they are not the least desirable. Because rejection has been repeatedly shown to lead to deficits in executive functioning, these defenses may be best thought of as habitual, mindless, strategies that function to protect self-esteem.” (Sommer)

OK

Print this article out and save it, because by understanding who you are, how you deal with rejection, how others deal with rejection and what you can do to repair and deflect rejection….well…life is going to improve dramatically.

A Two-Level System

“Platinum” and “Gold” Inner Circle

I’ve created a two-level Coaching and Mentoring Inner Circle for a very select group of people.

I have put together two different programs.
One is right for you. One is not.

The Platinum Inner Circle

Kevin Hogan's Platinum Inner Circle Mentoring ProgramIf your family income is greater than $85,000 annually, or if your net worth is greater than $400,000, you can apply.

If not, it’s not the right program for you. (Read about Gold Inner Circle below.)

Before applying for the Platinum Inner Circle, you need to have a certain level of achievement and stability. IF you qualify, apply after you read what’s in this comprehensive program below.

IF you don’t, then look at The Kevin Hogan Coaching and Inner Circle Gold.

Inner Circle Gold will help you to qualify for the Platinum Membership.

For the Gold Inner Circle there is no financial qualification but you must be able to show yourself to me as someone who will DO what we design and plan. You need to be the person who will persist until ….

I’m going to spend a lot of time with you and typically people who don’t want to succeed … don’t.

I won’t work with anyone who is not serious about their success.
If you want to achieve some level of greatness. If you care about the people around you. If you have a strong, yet compassionate spirit, then we can talk. Check out Gold Inner Circle a little further down. It was designed for you.

The Kevin Hogan Coaching and Mentoring Platinum Inner Circle

A maximum of 4 people will join the Kevin Hogan Coaching and Mentoring PLATINUM Inner Circle during this application period.

I’ve carefully designed what I believe to be the optimal and most comprehensive coaching and mentoring program and inner circle … ever.

The Inner Circle is based on … what else … proven results.

But there is more than just getting results.
There’s getting WOW results.

Here’s the thing: When I’m around people I respect, I perform. I excel. I achieve at levels difficult to match in other settings. So do you.

But this goes deeper than information.

It goes to perception and accountability.

You will do better for yourself, your family and in your business(es) if you are in the room with Kevin Hogan than a hired hand.

And when I thought about it, I decided I do want to be there with you.
You are going to be part of something special.

We Meet Face to Face

There is no crowd. There is no audience.
There is no music.
There is no B.S.
There is you. There is me.
There are a few select others in the room and that’s it.
This is not a symposium.

You Meet and Network with Millionaires

This is a millionaire coaching and mentoring program.

This is about being in the Inner Circle.

It’s about access.

Accelerate Your Success

I’m there to help you design a *real* and totally workable plan to accelerate your business, your marketing process, and your sales. I’m with you to show you how to make it all happen.

I’m there to show you PRECISELY what to do to become an entrepreneurial millionaire or superstar salesperson…. if you aren’t there already.

A Step-by-Step Personalized Path

I’m there to show you what steps to take to magnify your income and net worth if you are. Our business was up 54% this year, year over year. Last year it was up 26% year over year. How about you? Are you OK with those kind of numbers….because I’m going to show you what I DO.

BusinessStorm for Success

I’m going to show you every secret I’ve learned about business building.
I’m going to show you how to grow and grow fast.

Design, Plan, Implement, Sow, Reap, Manifest, Magnify, Simplify

… and have time for those that you love.

Whatever your business (as long as you are accepted … there ARE some people and businesses that are NOT permitted to be part of either program.), it’s going to grow or I won’t accept your application. It’s that simple.

I know some people will want to be in the Inner Circle simply to be there. That might be OK but you do have to tell me that on your application!

This program has been created to meet your needs and mine.

Closed Door Inner Circle Meeting Sessions

First, there are four quarterly gatherings of our Platinum Inner Circle. You, me and as many as two dozen others. No more.

Then the door closes.

Once the door closes, whether we are in Las Vegas, or New York, I take you from where you are and then move you into the future…fast. Each participant leaves with an action plan and IMPLEMENTATION PROCEDURE.

We might have fun.

But it doesn’t matter to me if we have fun.

We are in person “live” for three purposes.
Grow and permanently SECURE your business, stabilize and improve your time with your family and make you more money.

Period.
That’s it.

Each applicant I accept will have a determined attitude. You will succeed or don’t apply.

Telementoring for Follow Up and Accountability

45 days after each Closed Door full day meeting (in Las Vegas or New York) our Platinum Inner Circle gets together on the phone for two hours. The call is NOT recorded.

Results matter but more important is implementation. Was the plan implemented. Results can go up and down with the economy and a host of other factors.

Have the habits of achievement been integrated and manifested. Success follows results follows habits…

My question on the phone to each of you is simple: “Did you complete what we agreed you would complete?”

Then you tell me what you did and if you like, you can share results.

In addition to a webinar of brain dump information … this is an accountability call.

NO ONE ELSE DOES THIS.

No one understands the necessity of the accountability factor in achievement. You see it nowhere.

I’m going to make SURE you DO those things that bring achievement.

“Your ability to focus and get to the heart of the matter in minutes is what I love about being in Inner Circle. It’s your greatest gift, (next to your boundless compassion and maybe it is a part of that) in my opinion.” Sonya Lenzo, St. Paul, MN

Achievable Goals

I don’t like the word, “goals.” It almost implies that something won’t happen.

It will.

When we set a series of short and medium term goals, they WILL happen UNLESS we have redesigned the plan. PERIOD. Failure is NOT an option. It can’t and won’t happen.

And there’s a lot more.

One on One Conversations

You and I are going to have a one on one conversation for just over an hour on the telephone. Not once, but three times. This is where you get to ask me anything you want. If you like, I will find any areas of self sabotage, extract them and set you off to your next success. This highly structured call will keep you FOCUSED on what matters. Make sure you are getting the 80 part of the proverbial 80/20 rule. In other words. You are going to start doing what matters and stop doing things that you don’t need to do!

No one else does this either.

Look, I’m a real person. I was born with ZERO.

I lived the first 20 years of my life in often devastating circumstances. That creates a pattern of life that is almost impossible to escape from.

But I did.

Personalized Focus..

And I won’t let you fall into ANY patterns of behavior that will cause you failure. And that includes failure AT HOME. If you have a spouse, partner or kids, this program is going to make them the happiest people on the planet because they are going to UNDERSTAND what it means to them.

No one else takes care of this factor. I do because NOTHING MATTERS MORE. ANYTHING you need help with will be dealt with in the Tele-Mentoring sessions. AND you will get to share your successes and achievements with me.

This time together is RARE in the high level coaching world. I probably won’t ever offer this much of my personal time again, so do take advantage of it THIS YEAR.

Now we have dealt with the designing, planning, implementation, growing and harvesting and simplifying.

But there is more to ensure that success.

And I won’t let you fall into ANY patterns of behavior that will cause you failure. And that includes failure AT HOME. If you have a spouse, partner or kids, this program is going to make them the happiest people on the planet because they are going to UNDERSTAND what it means to them.

No one else takes care of this factor. I do because NOTHING MATTERS MORE. ANYTHING you need help with will be dealt with in the Tele-Mentoring sessions. AND you will get to share your successes and achievements with me.

This time together is RARE in the high level coaching world. I probably won’t ever offer this much of my personal time again, so do take advantage of it THIS YEAR.

Now we have dealt with the designing, planning, implementation, growing and harvesting and simplifying.

But there is more to ensure that success.

You Get GOLD – VIP Access

Kevin Hogan's Inner Circle Coaching ProgramYou’ll have an opportunity to participate in the newly upgraded and re-engineered 9 week Internet Marketing and Wealth Building E-Course that is modeled on the incredibly successful Professional Speakers Course I developed eight years ago.

Watching person after person get published, get hired, get paid, build programs and so on has given me the certainty to know that this is more than a good model, it is an ACHIEVEMENT MODEL. This E-Course alone is $10,000 to the general public but is a gift to you as part of the Platinum Inner Circle.

You’re going to learn EVERYTHING about Internet Marketing and Wealth Building on the Web in this 9 week course. Now, because of a few technical areas, I WILL have an assistant in sharing wisdom with you here. There are some technical issues that I am definitely NOT expert at. I won’t waste your time or my time trying to explain that which I have difficulty with. I will bring in the world’s leading expert in anything that you will need help with. I will not allow you to have anything but the VERY FINEST and MOST UP TO DATE information and the cleanest, fastest, no BS way to implement everything.

Nine weeks.

Whether you have a website today or not…nine weeks after you begin the Internet Marketing and Wealth Building on the Web E-Course, you will be well on your way to some pretty remarkable results.

Finally, as a nice dessert to all of these entrees…. four times each year you will be an invited guest to my quarterly webinars I offer to the public. They are each two hours in length. They are high content and very valuable in their own right but I need you on the webinar so you can learn how to GIVE a webinar and make all the right things happen that have to happen to build you long term credibility and success in your field.

What People Say

“Want to influence others? Want to persuade others? Want to sell others? Then Science of Influence is not just an option – it’s a landmark breakthrough of information you can use the minute you read it.”
"As a psychotherapist, I work in the minefield of decision-making and I can tell you that making good decisions is critical to happiness, success, and relationships. Kevin Hogan’s course covers the terrain of decision-making with his usual thoroughness, candor, and relevance. Kevin is always ahead of the game because of his extensive research, vast and varied connections and sharp mind. His thinking about ‘high noon’ and light a fuse, if applied, would save many relationships and learning the concept alone is more than worth the price of admission."

Kevin is an internationally admired keynote speaker and corporate thought leader.
