Intra Individual Conflict
 Intra individual conflict arises from frustration, numerous
roles which demand equal attention but is not always
possible to devote, goals having both negative and positive
aspects, cognitive dissonaces, and neurotic tendencies.
 An individual driven by an inner state of deficiency himself
and herself in some action to fulfill the deficiency.
 The frustrated individual adopts any of four defence
mechanism: aggression, withdrawal, fixation or
compromise.
 Goal conflict is more complex than conflict from
frustration. Goal conflict occurs when the attainment of
one goal excludes the possiblity of attaining the another
one.

 STRATEGIES TO RESOLVE
INTRAPERSONAL CONFLICT
 Personal conflicts are inevitable; it’s part of the reality so no one would
believe if someone says he/she didn’t experience having those, that
someone isn’t human anymore, right? Now, some people know how to
handle their own personal conflicts but, some of the people
experiencing it don’t have any idea on how to resolve it. Why? Simply
because they just don’t know what to do. It’s either they are hesitating
whether to follow this one or that one, it’s hard to choose, just like how
we let someone choose between the two of his/her most favorite food,
games, movies and novels. Some chose to solve their intrapersonal
conflicts by doing the things which could only worsen their situation.
Some intrapersonal conflicts are minor, easy to handle or can be
overlooked. But some require a carefully thought out strategy for
successful resolution. So, the question is how to handle situations
when there is a battle within you? Well, below are some of the effective
strategies on resolving personal conflicts.

  Deal with it. Accepting the truth that sometimes
going through with personal conflicts are unavoidable.
Deciding not to mind them even when you’re hesitant
could create or result to another conflict, and could
affect the people which are involved and the reason
why you’re having battles with your conscience. You
have to deal with it in order for you not to be stuck
with your conflict. Example is, when you needed to
choose between this side or that side, but you chose
not to mind it and think that it’s not that important
and because of that, you would only be in a situation
which is worse than you thought it would be.

  Think it through. Deciding and choosing without
thinking what might happen could affect you and the
people that surrounds you. Having a moment to think
about the action or decision that you need to make.
You need to foresee things and analyze if what would
happen if you go with this decision or the other one.
You had to think of a way on what you should do in
order for your personal conflict to be resolved. For
example is thinking and reading books which are
related to dealing with and facing your personal
conflicts.

  Seek advice. Well yes, it’s true that you’re the only one
who could best solve your personal conflict, but asking
someone to help you isn’t bad right? Sharing it to
someone whom you’re comfortable with is best,
especially when that someone knows you too well.
They could give you some advice which could be the
best thing that you should do or decide, base on how
they know and think of you. Example of this strategy is
when you don’t have any idea on what to do, and your
personal conflict keeps on getting on your way and
seems to bother you a lot, ask your best friend, parents
or your siblings to help you out, and maybe they can
give you some advice which you can use and you can
get some idea with.

  Know your priorities. It’s one of those days when you’re
having an argument with yourself because your friends
invited you to hangout with them, but because you’re not
lucky enough and fate isn’t that good to you, it happened
while you needed to study for your quarter exam. Now, I
must admit it and every teenager must admit it, if we’re in
that position, we prefer to be with our friends rather than
studying right? But well, nobody would want to repeat
school. Your body wants to go, but your mind doesn’t want
you to. Among your friends and your studies, isn’t it too
obvious which one should be prioritized? Priorities are
important in order for you not to regret it at the end. Set
aside the things which are less important, and go with the
ones who could lead you to be a better one.

 CONCLUSION

 Personal conflicts can’t be avoided, but it can be

resolved. Although avoidance seems like the easy way
out. Facing your conscience and thinking about what
you should do and what should you choose whenever
you’re in such situation.
