Resolving conflicts to have a peaceful global community

Conflict occurs in many different settings, conflict may refer to any situation which there are
incompatible goals, understanding, or emotions within individuals or groups that lead to
opposition. And instead of facing the problem and trying to deal with it, some people tend to
back out from a conflict before it becomes a bigger problem.

this action can reduce the risk for bigger problems to come, a lot of people tend to do and say
hurtful things in the heat of a conflict. Some no longer present their case in a logical and
thoughtful way, and will try to assert dominance. Backing out from conflict before anything big
happens can give the individuals or groups some time to think of a more logical solution to solve
the conflict.

However, this can come with serious problems if left unsolved. If conflict at work isn’t resolved,
it can cause stress. Stress is normally triggered by things happening in your life,
unresolved conflict can create tension at home or at work. If you're constantly under
stress, you can have physical symptoms, such as headaches, an upset stomach, chest pain,
and problems with sleep. Stress can also lead to emotional problems, depression, panic
attacks, or other forms of anxiety and worry.

Second, it causes Frustration, and being in a constant state of frustration can lead to many
problems in your life. The frustration we feel can lead to other emotions that affect are well-
being and mental health. It can turn a positive person into a person who sees nearly everything as
a problem. Some people get too frustrated that they cannot think or act rationally. Not only does
this reduce a person’s chance of success, it can also affect the people around us. Being in a state
of frustration can hinder our relationship with other people, it makes us not able to interact with
those in conflict with us, making it hard to fix the problem.

While backing out from a conflict may be a simple solution to avoid being hurt, it can cause
people in the conflict to distance each other, it would be harder for them to talk things through
and look for a proper solution. It is best to consult the people you have conflict with, listen to
their side of the problem and understand their perspective before expressing your own, this is to
avoid misinterpretations and misunderstandings. Of course, in order for them to understand you,
you must be specific about your thoughts. You must speak with the goal of the people being able
to completely understand your position. There is always a chance to think through all the
possible solutions to the problem. Be prepared to present the solutions that you’ve thought about,
and also allow the person to present solutions as well. Accept that there will be times that you
won’t get what you want, aim for a solution that is fair and both of you will be content with.
Remember that there will always be conflict, we are different with different thoughts and beliefs,
and at some point we will differ with others, conflicts are a part of daily life so it's important that
we should deal with them when they arise.
