Since I have been sucking at getting myself to approach for the past few days, I told myself to start from the beginning and just approach one girl today.

8. Smile 10% more than you normally do
9. Allow the void to consume you 10% more
10. Lead for 10% more — instant date, moving the girl around on the street, setting the date for the date, …
