11. INTRAPERSONAL SKILLS
Intra means "within, contained by", e.g. intramural =
within the wall, so intramural sports are competitions
inside the same school.
As an example, take the Shakespeare play Hamlet. When
the title character quarrels with another character, like
the maiden Ophelia, he demonstrates interpersonal
conflict, because the conflict occurs between Hamlet
and Ophelia. When Hamlet wrestles with his own
intellect, such as in the famous "to be or not to be"
soliloquy, he demonstrates intrapersonal conflict,
because the conflict occurs within the mind of Hamlet,
and involves no one but himself.
