Hi, I’m Luke Sean Picco and welcome to Ironclad Confidence. Before I tell you just what it is I “do” and what this blog is all about, it’s important for you to know a few things about me …
First and foremost, I believe in myself. I have strong unshakable confidence that starts with my internal mindset which is grounded in lifelong personal development that I define for myself.
I believe that I can accomplish whatever I set-sail in my mind … my belief system is bigger than me … I believe that conscious growth has allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and break free from self-limiting beliefs and negative emotional barriers.
Furthermore, I’m a high performance entrepreneur and personal development coach with an unstoppable motivation to achieve my goals and full potential as a human being. I’ve been into self-development most of my adult life. I just love it.
I created Ironclad Confidence in 2017 as a personal development blog that allows me to hold myself accountable, set goals and build the confidence that’s required in all areas of life (health and fitness, nutrition, psychology, business building, book publishing and everything that has to do with living a supercharged life) …
But, before I go any further … I have a word of WARNING!
This blog, my videos and my podcast will make you uncomfortable… and that’s a good thing. WHY? Because personal development is a lot like a disciplined athlete who trains to the extreme to win? It requires getting uncomfortable with yourself and pushing yourself beyond your limits. It takes discipline. Growth. Purpose. Passion.
But once you get passed the initial discomfort of leaving your comfort zone, you’ll thank me for giving you this extraordinary push. This ironclad confidence.
On this website, you’ll learn the seven universal principals behind all successful growth efforts, I’ll openly share with you all the tools, resources as well as insightful strategies for developing the mind of a champion, improving your health and fitness, career, entrepreneurship, leadership, money, marketing and more.
The seven universal principals include how to:
-
Consciously take Control of Your Confidence and Transform Your Life…
-
Enjoy an Encouraging Career that Empowers Your Unique Self-Expression…
-
Leverage Your Time and Productivity to get the Most Out of Each Day…
-
Build Loving Relationships with Friends, Family and Compatible Partners…

Ironclad Confidence is about profound knowledge that focuses on mastering all areas of my life and has (universal application to improving anyone’s) mental, emotional, physical, and financial desires. I have come a long way and I have been able to break free from an emotional torture chamber of fear and doubt in my life.
Building confidence is about taking full-responsibility and full-control of your reality.
The more disciplined you are, the more confident you will be.
I know that may sound cliché or obvious, but despite the promises of “fast and easy” results from slick silver tongued marketers, real personal growth is neither fast nor easy. The truth is that hard work, determination, courage, persistence and discipline are required to achieve breakthrough results-results that are not attained by those who cling to success without effort.
The more disciplined you are, the more you follow through with achieving your goals, the more confident you will be and the more you will inspire other people.
AND, that’s what this website is all about. It’s about building unshakable confidence and courage in all areas of life. It’s about becoming a champion of transformation.
I invite you to use this website as a powerful growth compass to diagnose any challenge you may face. Go ahead and read through the pages, listen to the champions of transformation podcast, subscribe to my free newsletter and receive life-transforming videos and business recommendation, check out the different categories and posts or whatever fits your need.
If I can help you to hold yourself to a higher standard, to build the mental strength and courage to build an online business while you build yourself, then nothing would make me happier and I’ll teach you how. Check out the video below and I’ll reveal the keystone to success…
Now for the back story…
Growing up, I dealt with depression… I was raised by people who had to figure out their life so they didn’t have time to help me figure out my life. So, I had to figure my life out, I had to take control, I had to be the one who was capable of responding and be responsible because that’s what that means – responsibility means you’re capable of responding. And If I didn’t respond to where my life was going and the direction it was going…
Then I would imitate and mimic that negative pattern that I was raised around.
So, what I had to do was train myself and learn to coach myself and teach myself because growing up I was raised by people who I loved but who had drug addictions and so I had to find a few people who I could learn from, people who had figured out a better way of living. So, I started reading books on personal development and I started learning about business and marketing.
I discovered “immersion coaching” which is a process that has to do with saturating your brain and learning to reprogram your mind with a new way of thinking and looking at your life… I had to basically brainwash myself to succeed… and that’s what I did, I would find and follow mentors and coaches that I could learn from as I still do today… I would buy personal development programs, audio CD’s, and video courses… I would write my goals down on paper… etc.… etc…
BUT, not before I got NEGATIVE and almost destroyed my life because of not knowing “who I was”.
See, depression and negativity can destroy your life if you don’t truly learn who you are and take control of your life. I started to self-sabotage my relationships, and started smoking weed at an early age, I basically had an attitude of anything goes. I had no emotional control. I was self-destructive and just felt worthless.
And because I was raised in a negative environment … I was influenced towards living a negative pattern.
Then one day after I got enough pain and after hitting my emotional threshold, I decided to challenge that person in the mirror…
I knew that I was a good person I just had to realize it myself and I knew that I had to work on myself, because if I didn’t, I was going to live a miserable life.
So, at the age of 17 I started to develop a training routine that focused around bodybuilding and nutrition, I trained all through my 20’s and even though I made great progress… my inner-world (psychology) was suffering.
See, bodybuilding is more about your physical world (physics); it’s not based on sculpting your inner-world. My setback was that I never really learned to control my inner dialog that I was living by, instead I was using health and fitness as an outlet to release the stress and anger that I was dealing with emotionally.
As a result, I had developed a strong body, but, I suffered emotionally and had many internal battles of insecurities. I just couldn’t relate to other people… I didn’t know how to express myself and share my values with people.
I was frustrated and lacked emotional confidence and self-esteem. But, I always had a burning desire “WHY” I wanted to succeed inside, and I always had lion-like COURAGE that allowed me to be fearless when it came to challenges!
It’s been a battle-cry of refinement…
Over the years I’ve developed what I call ironclad confidence. It’s an unshakable confidence that has allowed me to become a champion of my life and transform in all areas… it’s an ongoing process of coaching myself to achieve the goals in my life.
The key to developing the mindset of a champion is to recognize that you can change your internal world no matter what you’ve gone through, you can start to take control of your life right now and transform yourself.
I am no longer the victim of my life, I am the owner.
I am now 38 years old… and have been involved with free-enterprise, business, marketing and entrepreneurship since the late 90’s… over the years I’ve developed strong moral authority, social skills and confidence. I did it through a process of reading, writing and talking about it.
In my previous years I’ve been successful in several different businesses. One of them being an offline information marketing and coaching business in the Network Marketing Industry.
My successful projects include Picco Publishing’s Maximum Postcard Profits portfolio of products – The Amazing Cash Machine Marketing System that sells other coaching products and tools such as: The Golden Mailbox Millionaire Course, Supercharged Marketing Secrets… and Maximum Cash Flow Systems!
And, after building that business… I decided to keep growing and turn my focus to online business mastery and doing what I love to do most…
… Which is to create goals that take you beyond your limits to a world of unlimited power…?
It is really ALL MINDSET. “How you think is everything”!!! Anything you want in life first starts with how you think. Thinking gets you out the front door every day … thinking puts you in your car every day … thinking is everything, every day.
I love to read, study, travel and NOW work on growing and building online businesses, including: Book publishing, Kindle, Blogging, YouTube, Podcasting, Affiliate Marketing and creating and selling coaching programs and information products.
I’ve always been a BIG THINKER and I encourage you to be a big thinker too… big thinkers train themselves to see not just what is but what can be. SEE WHAT CAN BE, NOT JUST WHAT IS.
If you “want” to have more success in life, then stay healthy, think BIG and BELIEVE in yourself…
I love to stay physically active and eat healthy nutritious food and I believe I can accomplish anything I set my mind to. There is a direct link between your heath, mindset and success. And I’m a true believer that truth triggers the power to do.
Just “think” about it, without firm, unwavering belief that man can travel in space, scientists would not have the courage, interest, and enthusiasm to move forward. I love mastering things that are challenging and love the laptop lifestyle business that I’m building. And here’s the really COOL part: “YOU CAN TOO”!
My goal with Ironclad Confidence is to make a difference in people’s lives by sharing my story, my values and everything I’ve learned about building successful self-confidence in all areas of life… I learned that at the end of the day, the one who feels the results (good or bad) and cares the most is you.
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter to me what you do – it matters to you. If you want true success I’ll be more than happy to help you succeed. If you don’t, I’ll help those who are more interested in changing their life. All I’m saying, is that the choice is ALWAYS up to you.
Whether you subscribe to my blog or not, I sincerely hope you find all the success that you desire. You deserve the very best. Entrepreneurship, personal development, business and marketing is straight forward.
It’s about fearlessly stepping out of your comfort zone and building the confidence you need to take control of your life and live emotionally and financially free.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to seeing you on the blog sometime soon!
Cheers,
Luke Picco
