Every one is at a different rung of the ladder and if you are all the way at the beginning then do yourself a favor and stop thinking about what the view is like at the top and instead focus on the victory of that first step up! You could give a woman a compliment every day as many times a day as you want Not wanting anything else from the interaction other than making there day. Then once you’ve done that you can step up to giving a compliment then following it up with a question that will begin a conversation. Repeat this everyday for as many days as you want until you are ready to then give a girl a compliment that leads to conversation that leads to you telling them to put there number in your phone. This constant adding of steps can keep increasing because once you’ve become comfortable with one stage of pickup you can always push yourself to go higher out of your comfort zone but if the thought of any of this makes you uncomfortable then it’s up to you to honestly take stock of where your at and lower yourself to where you need to be so you can improve naturally. There’s a lot of variables that will make this process easier for you in terms of Inner game, Body language, your speech, rate and tone, your style and overall energy/vibe your giving off. Feel free to message or comment if you want to know where you are on the ladder and how to start moving up. I’ve been in pickup for 8 years and can use my learning curve to save all of you a lot of wasted time
