HOW IT GOT STARTED
Have you aver reached a point in your life when you felt a little bit lost? Unable to make a decision of what to do next? For me, one of my darkest moments was when I had recently lost both my dad and my mum within a few years, I was in the middle of a big fallout with a family member and my partner of 15 years and I had decided to commence divorced proceedings. Despite having my wonderful two boys, I felt lost, and deeply unhappy. Back then, what helped me to get back on track was a happiness club I created with some of my friends, called 'I love tulips'. The name was in honor of my mum who loved tulips, and especially so because when I was 12 years old I had decided to buy her tulips to honor the day big pile of snow had melted in a particular spot and I wanted to celebrate spring. Â
I was missing my mum, but realised that what she would have wanted was for me to be happy, and the happiness club really helped with that. Happiness and wellbeing is however something that we don't need to be depressed or troubled to consider important. Whatever our circumstances, we can all use a little boost of feeling better about ourselves, our jobs, or our day. I hope that The LAGOM way can inspire whatever situation you are in, to make an improvement however small, to your own situation or even to give you a little bit of a spring in your step. I hope that you will enjoy the site, and if anything has inspired you in any way, I'd love to hear from you
