Pride made me stay in Lagos when I knew it was not working for me.

Isilomo has narrated how ego (Pride) made her make a decision that wasn’t working for her. She recalled when she was a “pseudo-celebrity” as she shared her throwback photos and said she was sure she could have been among the top 4 on the show if she wasn’t taken out early. She further revealed that she could have been in Abuja and accessed all her blessings much sooner.

She wrote;

Throwback but make it story time.

I remember these or this period to be a time when I took the most beautiful photos of my life, the good old days of being a pseudo celebrity.

The truth? I was dieing, why? EGO dears. I was so sure that if they didn’t take me out I would have been in the top 4 (who told me that), my pride was hurt because I also had to be the first leave. EGO because isi could afford 12k manicure and still have money for a decent and may be even a Lux meal on the same day and won’t feel it, the same isi was now doing 1 kobo 2 kobo …for like six months (OMO)

EGO made me stay in Lagos when I knew it was not working for me, I could have been in Abuja and accessed all my blessings much sooner.

EGO is the thing that complicates most of our lives, it’s a pressure you put on yourself, it doesn’t allow you live in the moment, it won’t allow you be present and that’s where you miss it.

I learned (the hard way) just how much of my ego was me and how so much of my confidence was attached to it. Needless to say I’m still a very very very proud person but now I have no EGO and my life is so much better for it.
