DON’T YOU HAVE EGG???

🎙DON’T YOU HAVE EGG . . . ???

This is what they didn’t teach you about CULTURE! 👇
.
.
I’ve always loved preparing my meals by myself right from my campus days
.
.
I don’t eat out very much . . . At least, that’s what I tell myself! 😂

So, I buy my foodstuffs in chunks and keep in my house . . .
.
.
You understand bah?

I’ve been doing this since 2013 . . .
.
.

Disclaimer: PLEASE I DIDN’T SAY I CAN COOK OO! 😂

Well, let’s continue my story . . .

On a very good day, my friend showed up and we decided to cook indomie and egg
.
.
Ooooh how I love that combo! 🤤
.
.
So, just before the cooking started, I was about to dash out of the house to buy egg . . .
.
.

Then came the question that changed my life, ‘DON’T YOU HAVE EGG IN YOUR HOUSE?’
.
.

Oooh! you don’t know what this simple question did for me!
.
.

It was at this point that it dawned on me that in my six years of ‘independent cooking practice’ . . .
.
.

‘I’VE NEVER BOUGHT A FULL CRATE OF EGG’

I’ll tell you why that question changed my life . . .
.
.

Stay with me! ✋🏻

Growing up, I never saw a full crate of egg in our house!
.
.

My mum bought every foodstuff but NEVER a crate of egg!
.
.
Unconsciously, I had also inherited a habit that wasn’t worthwhile, simply by being a member of a family that behaved in a certain way!
.
.

You see, my mum probably inherited that from her mum too . . . I think so!
.
.

And I had done the same, just by observing . . .
.
.

The days we fried egg in the house, we celebrated it! Lol 😂
.
.

We were not poor . . . No! Not atall!

We fed on 6 Square meals . . . and I mean it!
.
.

I don’t know why ‘EGG’ was just special . . . Kaii! 🤦🏻‍♂

No single foodstuff was ever missing in our kitchen store . . . Only egg!!!
.
.

This is me at my twenties . . . Egg is missing in my kitchen too!

Mind you . . . This is all UNCONSCIOUS!

I never sat down to decide that I won’t buy egg . . . And of course I had plenty money for it 🤷🏻‍♂
.
.
After that day, I sat down to think about it and this really baffled me!
.
.
.

I enter the market, buy everything else in bulk, but egg . . . but same me will stroll to a corner shop the same evening to buy two pieces of egg!
.
.

On the average, I buy 6 eggs every week at N50 each.

While I could just get 30pieces at N900, saving me N600 for every crate I consume.
.
.

I realized that there were many other things I was doing based on the culture I was baptized into while growing up
.
.
.

That was how one single question MADE ME A BETTER PERSON!

Now . . . Let me narrow it down a little bit more with a question

“HOW MANY SILLY THINGS ARE YOU STILL DOING NOW JUST BECAUSE YOU WERE UNCONSCIOUSLY SCHOOLED INTO BEHAVING THAT WAY”
.
.

Unlike me, yours may be the way you talk to people!

.
.

Growing up, everything was a competition, so you see your friends as competitors instead of people that could actually help you!
.
.

It can be the way you see online businesses and online trainings (I know this one pain somebody! 🙄)

Yes! Because you’ve only been exposed to the orthodox way of learning and doing business right?
.
.

It can even be the way you handle your relationships!

In one way or the other, we are all products of the culture of our family and immediate environment!
.
.
.
One way or the other, there is an EGG(habit) that you don’t have in your house(life) simply because you didn’t know any better!

So, I’ll ask you this question . . .

👉🏻 DON’T YOU HAVE EGG IN YOUR HOUSE?
.
.

What positive habit have you been pushing away because you didn’t see anyone model such in your immediate environment???
.
.

TALK TO YOURSELF TODAY!

Now you know know you need EGG in your house . . . Go and buy plenty of it and keep!
.
.

P.S: Since that day, I use egg for everything ooo . . . Egg soup, Egg Beans, Egg pap 😂

Hahaha! You dunno warris gohen on!!! 😂🤣🤣😂

I hope you got value! 🤝🏻
