I came up with a game to keep cold approach fun and interesting but most importantly to motivate yourself to keep approaching
In my experience this is great for guys who don't necessarily have approach anxiety (ie. you're not totally nervous during the interaction) but make a lot of mental excuses on why they shouldn't approach a girl.
If you play this game by the rules you will approach at least 50 percent of the girls you want to talk to (CONSISTENTLY!)
The concept is simple:
Start at 0 POINTS
Approach = +2 points
Pass a girl* up = -1 point
Pass up a group of girls* = -1 point
(* = attractive girls)
Ignore total approaches/numbers
Keep score after every girl you see, even if the score doesn't change, just to remind yourself
You can set certain rules on which girls don't count, but be reasonable.
My only two rules today were no girls with boyfriends and no girls on the phone.
Also, this is the most important part of the game:
If your score is negative, you CAN'T leave
You must keep approaching until you get back to 0.
If you can get back to 0 every time you play, that means you're approaching at 50%
If you score over 0, you're approaching MORE THAN 50%
If you always score negative, do AA drills and try again later
There are a number of benefits to playing this game:

There are a number of benefits to playing this game:
- It's fun
- 100% outcome independent
- Helps kill approach anxiety
- Workaround for motivation issues ("I don't want to talk to girls right now")
- Great for guys who make excuses
- Gets you in the mood to approach anywhere (if you pass up a girl in the supermarket, gym, etc. start keeping score and don't leave until the game is over)
