Resolving conflict with parts

I'm just rewriting a book I wrote in 1999 and spending some time on a chapter on 'parts'. It's amazing stuff and if you've never come across it here's the very basics.
Conflict can obviously arise anywhere in the world and our lives.

In many cases we don’t necessarily even need someone else around to get into a conflict with, as we’re quite good at doing it with ourselves. By this I mean those times when you find yourself saying, “It seems as part of me wants to do this - but another part of me drives me to do exactly the opposite.” This why this approach is often called a 'parts'
You’ve spotted an internal conflict when:
· You find yourself performing a particular behaviour
· You wish that you weren’t
· But you seem powerless to stop it
Common examples are doing things like:
· Getting unreasonably angry
· Telling yourself that you won’t be able to succeed at something
· Commenting negatively about yourself
· Snacking when you’re supposed to be on a diet
· Feeling guilty
· Smoking
and at the same time wishing that you weren’t.
What would be like if you didn't have this internal struggle any more, and that energy was then available for something more interesting?
Resolving those parts does just that...
