Popular media personality, Bolanle Olukanni has come out to share how being told she’s beautiful got into her head at the young age of 5.

She recently revealed that the fact that her older sisters had a lot more going for them asides from physical validation made her snap out of it.

According to her, becoming more rounded as a person as a teenager made her stop the obsession about her looks in the end and she is very grateful.

She added that it is wrong for anyone to get obsessed with his or her physical appearance and we should all get our confidence from the creator.

“With an increasingly growing obsession on physical looks, its easy to get sucked in and completely depend on your physical looks for self validation. I told someone a story yesterday- When I was really young -like 5 years old… I was the cutest thing. Lol yup. Everyone told me. It was my identity -even as a 5 year old. I knew it . Carried it on my head. So I got to 7 and of course I wasnโ€™t a cute like a baby. I remember thinking why donโ€™t people tell me I am cute anymore??!!!!

I was so bothered and upset by it. Thankfully my parents noticed and I had older sisters who really had a lot more going for them asides from physical validation. I began to become more rounded as a person and I was able to grow into my teenage years not overly obsessed about my looks. My self- confidence also came from knowing who I am as a Child of the Most high. Ultimately this is where that confidence comes from.

This life will ask you to validate yourself based on things , where you are from , how you talk , how you achieve – if you constantly answer , you will be running upandan. So stop . Get your confidence from the creator. God made you . Thatโ€™s the only opinion that matters.”
