We can find it hard to deal with our own locked up isolated packets of will, that is the will trapped in the "I's".
It is good to know that there are within our interior, packets of will that act in an almost autonomous way. Because then we know what is going on inside of ourselves and what we are facing and why it is so difficult. We also how to deal with them. We also then know that our job is to eventually dissolve them into the rest of our free will.
For one, it is difficult to penetrate into. If only we can penetrate into it could we then modify it from inside.
All that we can do to start with, is to use the amount of will that we have free to not allow the trapped will to express especially if it is inconvenient in the moment.
We need our consciousness to penetrate into it, to understand it and we need to keep using our will to do the opposite of it, until it weakens, however unpleasant it is for us.
This is where faith comes in. We have to have faith that even though as unpleasant as it is doing to the opposite, it will get easier and easier and we will feel great once that "I" it is very weak. We will really enjoy our new freedom that is going to come out of our efforts.
Faith is the value that motivates us and sustains in this task. It is a great strength that also overcomes our laziness to try and keep trying.
