Each year millions of people around the world decide to pick that one special resolution which will enable them to do something differently for the next 365 days.
Whether that's learning to control your temper (and your colourful choice of language) or become as bootylicious as Beyonce by working out in the gym and laying off the left over Christmas cake, it's clear that when there's a new year, there's the desire for a new you - people want to make a change.
Apart from the usual resolutions such as eating better, working out more and being happy, some of the Rule girls have more ambitious goals, such as cutting down on using so many hair products and even finalising a backyard blitz. Some may even inspire what you pick for your 2017 resolution.
