If you are sitting at your desk reading this during the last day before Christmas - you are working too much!

One of the advantages of working from home should be that you have quite a bit of freedom to choose how and when you work -Or don't work!

Yes, so okay there are times when you absolutely have to work longer hours than you want, burning the candle at both ends to finish a pressing project. But now is not one of those times.

Now is the time to be with your partner, friends and loved ones.

This is a special time for us all and you owe it to yourself and the people closest to you in your life to spend time with them and not with your computer.

If not now, when?

If you are not careful you may well lose out on something that is priceless to you - in order to just earn just a few extra pounds.

Here's wishing you a very Merry Christmas and Happy Prosperous New Year!
