It’s the time of year when everyone is gettin’ real. Yep, we’re talkin’ New Year’s resolutions. Have one in mind? If not, consider our suggestions, based on your Chinese Animal Sign:

Rat

In 2012, your resolution should be to make more money! It’s Dragon year, and you’ve got the green light for projects that could launch you into a whole new realm of success.

Ox

Truth time? Your resolution should probably be to lose a few pounds. The holidays tend to be hard on your sign’s waistline, so use the first few months of the year to get on track with a fitness regime.

Tiger

Your resolution ought to be to play nicely with others. Dragon year might find you butting heads with the big boys, but you need to learn how to control your temper.

Rabbit

What should you swear to in 2012? How about not taking care of anyone else's feelings but your own. It's time you did more for you, like spa days, trips, or just down time doing something you love. Your mantra? "Relax."

Dragon

It’s kinda cheesy, but how about “Be all You Can Be,” for a resolution? After all, it’s your year! Don’t hold back and really go for what you want.

Snake

The best resolution you can make is probably to be a little more proactive about your career. The energy of 2012 is the perfect rush you need to start planting seeds of growth.

Horse

Your resolution? It should probably be to think before you speak. Dragon year could have you crashing and burning if you aren’t careful, so make sure you keep your opinions to yourself unless you’re sure they won’t cause a backlash.

Sheep

What should you vow to do next year? Stand up for yourself. It’s possible you’ll get pushed around with the Dragon energy, so resolve to be firm in your decisions and beliefs.

Monkey

The best New Year’s resolution for you is to ask for what you’re worth. Whether that’s at work or in your relationships, it’s time to stand up for your own future.

Rooster

You should resolve to not get carried away in 2012. It could be easy for you to do so, but you need to stay focused on the goals you have. Strike the balance between being practical and being a dreamer.

Dog

Hmm… what should a Dog resolve to do in Dragon year? Stay safe! It could be a rough one, so vow to take care of yourself and your own needs.

Pig

Your resolution ought to be about finally going after a long-standing dream. Dragon year is the perfect time, so don’t hold back any longer.
