UILabel initial text not showing when connecting as a IBOutlet

So I have a UILabel connected as an IBOutlet. It's initial text shows up if the label is not connected in IB, but as soon as I do connect it, the initial text doesn't show up until after I have ran my IBAction which changes the text to something else. For example:

I want it to show "Enter total" when the view loads, and after the IBAction runs it will change to a number. I've tried..

myLabel.text = @"Enter total";

At the Viewdidload method. I've also tried...

myLabel.hidden = NO;

It is setup in IB with the correct initial title as well. Nothing will show the initial text without disconnecting the IBOutlet in IB. I know I'm missing something...please help!

in my .h

IBOutlet UILabel *myLabel;
@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UILabel *myLabel;

In my xib the title for the label is "Enter total"

1) In your nib click on label where you want to show text

2) Then click on top bar view in text write your text @"Enter total";

3) compile and run u'll see it as a default text.
