    Wonderful movie. What I took away from this is that the voice in your head depends on how you look at life. When the protagonist of the story finally allowed the pessimistic voice of his head to let go, he felt happy, confident and positive. The voice in his head was still there but it was not pessimistic anymore, he met the optimistic side of his voice waiting for him at the roadside. Amazing concept, congratulations to the cast.

      ​@@davidbrown1566 I think you may have missed the point of the ending. He didn't let the voice in his head back in per se, but he invited in his new perspective. The point being....we need the voice in our head. We just don't need it to be as it was in the beginning of the short. In the beginning the voice controlled him, also he didn't understand the reality of the voice. He saw the voice as himself. He also saw it as, quite literally and contradictory, un-real. It took another person to tell him that the voice isn't real. But that's the catch, the voice is real, it just doesn't always guide us in truth. But we need the inner voice as it does guide us. It does serve purpose and while it is not us, it is a part of us. Once it's true nature is realized, it won't be the same as before. It won't wield the control it once had and thus the new relationship begins....

      This short movie is not using metaphors, it translates literally the meanings and symbols without even hiding them under the appearance. I don't see anyone knocking out anything here.

    You can be honest with yourself without being a dick about it.
    And sometimes the voice needs to go away for awhile if it's gonna be so negative.
    Action will prove it wrong, once there's action theres a time to change your mind about something.
    Like " see this is nice actually, I shouldn't be so worried about avoiding this."
    Or other positive affirmations (choose your own) but they're typically more effective while your in the act of doing something related to the thought.
    Also purposely thinking of your to do list while board or idle is an easy motivation. Some people write down their to do lists.
    Knocking out your to do list gives you something to do(obviously) but it's also positive for your value of life in other words, it empowers you.
