iOS noob: application halts at NSLog when I click button?

Question

I have an a button that has an outlet to a method in my controller.m file:

    @implementation EMHomepageController
    - (IBAction)firstButtonClick:(id)sender {
        NSLog(@"task label text = %@", self.taskLabel.text);
    }

However, when I click the button, my file opens and xcode highlights my NSLog(@"task label text = %@", self.taskLabel.text); line in green with a extra green box with text: Thread 1: breakpoint 1:1. Also, the button (in the simulator) becomes faded and unclickable. Did I do something wrong?

I'm just trying to print the text of my label in the console. Thanks for the help.

I did not down vote it but really? You can't figure it out yourself? Don't you understand the meaning of `breakpoint`? — Bryan Chen, May 18 '14 at 01:52
I up voted because at least he wrote a clear enough question that someone who *did* know breakpoints was able to provide an answer quickly. — benzado, May 18 '14 at 07:01
Why would he know what a breakpoint is? that sort of thing is tough when you're beginning. The question is well written. @Edmund here's some useful stuff http://stackoverflow.com/a/17622571/294884 — Fattie, May 18 '14 at 08:43

This is a manually placed breakpoint. In the left margin, where the line numbers are, you should see a blue arrow. Right click it and disable/delete it and try again.
