Apps, sites, & software for startups and the big companies they strive to become.

You know the Stanford Marshmallow Test?
 
Give a kid a marshmallow. Tell them if they wait 10 minutes, they get two.
Researchers followed those kids for decades.
The ones who waited earned more, achieved more, outperformed across the board.
 
Self-control, the story goes, predicts success.
 
But what if it was possible to have too much of a good thing?
 
What if instead of a line going up and to the right, it's a curve?
At the top is a sweet spot where discipline, focus, and drive produce extraordinary results.
 
On the other side of that peak is suffering.
 
→ Depression that won't lift
→ Treatment-resistant anxiety
→ Burnout that persists beyond time off
→ Chronic pain with no clear physical cause
→ Relationships that function but never feel close
 
This other side of the curve is called Over-Control.
 
The founder pulling 80-hour weeks.
The person who never misses a deadline.
The leader whose team performs but never trusts them.
The executive who hasn't felt anything in years and calls it "focus."
 
Society rewards every step of the climb.
Praise. Promotions. "Success."
 
So it goes unrecognized for decades,
until the body starts keeping score,
or the loneliness becomes unbearable,
or the thing that defined you suddenly shifts beneath your feet.
 
That's where we come in.
 
The Wise Mind Group is a therapy and coaching practice built for high-achievers.
 
My wife Danielle is an ex-big law litigator turned licensed therapist and our Clinical Director, specializing in evidence-based approaches for this exact population:
people whose greatest strength has quietly become their greatest liability.
 
I'm not just the business guy. I'm patient zero.
25 years in tech. Five startups. 80-hour weeks.
I built a software agency, ran it for over a decade, and optimized every system in my life except the one that mattered most.
 
When I was a kid, my mom said I could have ONE birthday party.
I kept postponing it, waiting for the "right" time.
I never had one.
That's Over-Control in a sentence.
 
Now I work at the intersection of what I know and what I've lived.
 
We specialize in:
→ The mental health impact of AI and career disruption
→ Burnout and anxiety that "shouldn't" be there
→ The quiet suffering of being "the strong one"
→ Chronic pain without a clear physical cause
→ Leadership transitions and identity shifts
 
We use RO-DBT, IFS, EMDR, and Pain Reprocessing Therapy, approaches built for people who spent a lifetime building walls.
 
If this sounds familiar, you're not broken.
You might just have too much of a good thing,
and you can let go of the parts that are making you unhappy.

Your growth isn’t measured by pursuit.

It’s measured by restraint.

Early in your career,
you chase everything.

→ The title
→ The funding round
→ The recognition
→ The invite to the table

It feels like ambition.

Sometimes it is.

But often, it’s insecurity
with a productivity app.

Maturity in leadership
isn’t about what you add.

It’s about what you refuse to pursue.

You stop chasing:

1. Every opportunity
↳ If it’s for you, it won’t require desperation

2. Every room you’re not invited into
↳ Not all tables deserve your time

3. Every argument
↳ Being right is overrated

4. Every trend
↳ Relevance fades, principles compound

5. Every client
↳ Revenue without alignment is expensive

The strongest leaders I know
don’t look frantic.

They look focused.

Calm.

Selective.

They’ve learned that energy is finite.
Attention is sacred.
Time is non-renewable.

So they choose carefully
what deserves pursuit.

Refusal is a strategy.

When you stop chasing noise,
you hear your own standards again.

When you stop chasing approval,
you start leading with conviction.

When you stop chasing growth at all costs,
you build something sustainable.

You don’t need everything.

You need the right things.

Say no more often.

Protect your focus.

Let others sprint.

Build at your pace.

The most overlooked skill in leadership?
 
Trusting your own signal over the noise.
 
Most high performers have a dirty secret.
They don't trust themselves.
 
They trust the consensus.
They trust frameworks.
They trust mentors.
They trust data.
 
But the moment they're alone
with a decision that has no playbook,
they freeze.
 
Not because they lack intelligence.
Because they've been trained to believe
that certainty must come from the outside.
 
Here's what nobody tells you:
 
Certainty is a feeling, not a fact.
And waiting for it is a trap.
 
The leaders I respect most
didn't have more information than you.
They had less hesitation.
 
They made the call.
They stayed in the room with discomfort.
They let the results teach them.
 
Trust isn't built by getting it right.
It's built by surviving getting it wrong,
and realizing you're still standing.
 
A year from now,
the version of you that took the shot
will have something the cautious version won't:
 
Evidence.
 
Not evidence that you were right.
Evidence that you can handle
whatever comes next.
 
That's the real unlock.
 
Stop waiting for confidence to arrive.
Make the decision that builds it.

🔔 Follow Elijah Szasz for tips on staying grounded in the age of AI.

AI is about to break organic content distribution.

And most people don’t see the window yet.

Everyone’s arguing about AI writing posts.

That’s not the shift.

The shift is distribution.

For years, organic growth was simple:
→ Write good content  
→ Stay consistent  
→ Learn the platform  
→ Hope the algorithm cooperates  

Now we’re entering a different phase.

AI can:

→ Analyze what formats are spiking in real time  
→ Generate variations fast enough to test daily  
→ Personalize outbound at scale  
→ Repurpose one idea into 20 native formats  
→ Identify overlooked audience pockets  

That creates arbitrage.

Not forever.

For a window.

Here’s how this usually plays out:

1. Early adopters exploit distribution gaps  
2. Platforms tighten the rails  
3. Loopholes close  
4. New surface area opens  

It’s cat and mouse.

But the cycles are accelerating.

The real opportunity?

Not replacing your voice.

Building systems around it.

→ AI as research analyst  
→ AI as distribution engine  
→ AI as testing machine  
→ You as strategist  

The creators who win won’t be the loudest.

They’ll be the most systematic.

Organic isn’t dying.

It’s becoming a systems game.

Cofounder & Managing Director, The Wise Mind Group | Helping high-performers thrive beyond burnout, anxiety, and AI disruption

The harsh truth about growth:
 
It’s painful, but staying stuck hurts more.
 
Staying stuck feels safer,
but it comes at a hidden cost:
 
→ It drains your energy.
→ It steals your potential.
→ It keeps you locked in a cycle of regret.
 
Here’s a framework to escape:
 
Acknowledge the pain
↳ Growth hurts, but it’s temporary
 
Choose a small step
↳ Don’t tackle the mountain; focus on the first hill.
 
Reframe the challenge
↳ Every difficult moment is proof that you’re evolving.
 
Lean into it.
Every step forward compounds.
The discomfort of growth is worth the reward.
 
P.S. Next time fear of change holds you back, ask yourself this:
“Which pain am I choosing, growth or regret?”

Most leaders I know are chasing wealth.

While quietly ignoring the only 3 assets that matter.

You can stack wins for decades.
Grow revenue.
Build teams.
Expand influence.

And still feel like something’s missing.

Because real wealth was never about the scoreboard.

It’s about three things most people treat as optional.

1. Your health.

→ Do you wake up with energy?
→ Do you protect your sleep like it’s sacred?
→ Can you train your body without breaking it?

If your business is thriving
but your body is deteriorating,

You’re not rich.
You’re renting success.

2. Your peace.

→ Can you sit in silence without anxiety?
→ Do you trust your own judgment?
→ Can you detach from outcomes?

If your mind never turns off,
the money won’t make it quieter.

Peace isn’t soft.
It’s a competitive advantage.

3. Your people.

→ Do you have relationships without performance?
→ Can you be honest without losing status?
→ Do your closest friends make you better?

Influence is public.
Wealth is private.

A small circle of solid humans
beats a large audience of spectators.

Here’s the reframe most leaders resist:

If your health is intact,
your mind is steady,
and your circle is strong,

You are already ahead.

Everything else is a bonus.

The smartest operators I know
don’t optimize for more.

They defend these three at all costs.

Because once they’re gone,
no amount of success can buy them back.

Self-acknowledgment isn’t selfish.
 
Here are 3 ways to make it a strategic advantage.
 
Your brain has a built-in filter system:
The Reticular Activating System (RAS).
 
It decides what gets your attention.
And it works like a heat-seeking missile.
Whatever you believe and focus on, it finds more of.
 
So when you celebrate progress,
your brain goes to work looking for more progress.
You literally train your mind to build confidence faster.
 
This isn’t woo-woo fluff.
It’s neuroscience.
 
Here are 3 ways to build the habit of giving yourself more credit:
 
1. End your day with a “proof list”
↳ Write 3 things you handled well
↳ Doesn’t matter how small—stack the wins
↳ Let success feel familiar
 
2. Catch yourself doing it right
↳ Mid-task? Say it: “I’m doing this.”
↳ Real-time acknowledgment rewires your self-image
↳ Practice noticing, not just achieving
 
3. Share your progress with someone safe
↳ Accountability magnifies momentum
↳ Let others reflect back what you’re too close to see
↳ Borrow their belief when yours wavers
 
The more credit you give yourself,
the more capable your brain believes you are.

We think we're building relationships on Zoom.
 
We're not. We're building placeholders.
 
I flew to California for work last month.
Met a friend I'd been talking for two years.
Zoom calls. Text messages. LinkedIn comments.
The whole digital friendship package.
 
We sat down. Shared a meal.
 
Something shifted in the first ten minutes
that two years of calls never touched.
 
There's a reason humans have been breaking bread
together since before recorded history.
It's not about the food.
 
It's a signal. One of the oldest ones we have.
 
"We're sharing resources with each other.
We're safe here. We belong to this tribe."
 
No amount of exchanges over screens replaces that.
 
I watch leaders pour thousands of hours
into building teams on Slack and Zoom.
Tight async systems. Efficient real-time chats.
 
And then wonder why trust never quite lands.
Why culture feels thin no matter what they try.
 
Your nervous system knows the difference
between a screen and a person across a table.
So does everyone on your team.
 
Some things don't scale.
Connection is one of them.
 
If there's someone in your network
you've only ever known through a lens,
find a way to share a meal with them.
 
It'll change the relationship in ways
you won't be able to fully explain.
But you'll feel it immediately.

Ever feel like everyone else has it all figured out?
 
Spoiler alert: Nobody really does.
 
Each one of us
 
→ navigate struggles
→ endure suffering
→ keep growing
 
But here’s the thing:
 
Growth doesn’t require perfection.
It only requires showing up.
 
Especially when things feel messy.
 
The next time you catch yourself
comparing your journey to someone else’s,
ask yourself:
 
"Would I be willing to trade my entire life for theirs?"
 
→ Your failures
→ Your triumphs
→ Your great loves
→ Your great losses
 
If you can't answer with an unequivocal "yes"
(and who can honestly agree to this??)
then why compare one piece of it?
 
Your story isn't over until it's over.
 
✅ What’s one small action I can take today to move forward?
✅ What’s one habit I can build to create momentum?
 
Progress doesn’t come from waiting for the perfect moment.
It comes from doing the best you can, right now.
There's nothing to "figure out."
Just a life of growth to live.
 
P.S. We're all in this together. Literally. Enjoy the ride.
