Reality TV star, Isilomo Braimoh has opened up on how her pride and ego affected her negatively after she was evicted from BBNaija 2019.
Taking to her Instagram page, Isilomo said she was so sure that she would have been among the Top 4 housemates if she wasn’t the first to be evicted, and her pride was hurt.
She added that her ego stopped her from leaving Lagos at the time even though she knew things were not working well for her, and she was dying on the inside.
Isilomo who eventually relocated to Abuja to pursue a better life, stated that ego complicates things and advised people not to put pressure on themselves.
Her words,
“Throw back 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 to 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.”
