My goal is to complete 200 approaches by Dec 31st 2025. In August I did 9 approaches that counts towards the goal. The criteria is that I have normal conversation that lasts around 5 minutes. These 9 approaches didn’t lead anywhere.

One thing I learned is eye contact and scanning the room are the best ways to get out of my own head.

Now for September I am hoping to get this number to 50 plus.
