Conflict
Conflict most commonly refers to:
Conflict Resolution
Conflict resolution is conceptualized as the methods and processes involved in facilitating the peaceful ending of conflict and retribution. Committed group members attempt to resolve group conflicts by actively communicating information about their conflicting motives or ideologies to the rest of the group (e.g., intentions; reasons for holding certain beliefs) and by engaging in collective negotiation. Dimensions of resolution typically parallel the dimensions of conflict in the way the conflict is processed. Cognitive resolution is the way disputants understand and view the conflict, with beliefs, perspectives, understandings and attitudes. Emotional resolution is in the way disputants feel about a conflict, the emotional energy. Behavioral resolution is reflective of how the disputants act, their behavior. Ultimately a wide range of methods and procedures for addressing conflict exist, including negotiation, mediation, mediation-arbitration, diplomacy, and creative peacebuilding.
Peacebuilding
Peacebuilding is an intervention technique or method that is designed to prevent the start or resumption of violent conflict by creating a sustainable peace. Peacebuilding activities address the root causes or potential causes of violence, create a societal expectation for peaceful conflict resolution and stabilize society politically and socioeconomically.

Resolution
What mockeries are our most firm resolves !
To will is ours, but not to execute.
We map our future like some unknown coast,
And say, "Here is an harbour, here a rock —
The one we will attain, the other shun :"
And we do neither.
Letitia Elizabeth Landon, Ethel Churchill (or The Two Brides) (1838), Vol. I Chapter 13

Never tell your resolution beforehand.

Hast thou attempted greatnesse?
Then go on;
Back-turning slackens resolution.
