My mother’s go-to saying is, “Well, not with that attitude.” She is a firm believer that a positive attitude can fix any situation, and according to the Huffington Post, she might be correct. Some studies have shown that positive thinking can even help build lasting skills, they said.

But the word attitude doesn’t just mean having a positive or negative outlook on a situation. It can describe how you approach things, think about things, speak to others, or be perceived by other people. There are good and bad, positive and negative, sassy and sweet attitudes, and the list goes on.

Whether you need an attitude adjustment or need a new perspective on a situation, you’re not alone. Here are some great Mamalode resources about attitude:

• The Difference Between I Can’t and I Won’t by Carter Gaddis
• Be Kind to Yourself Too, Momma by Jessica Burdg
