How do I get over my drunken instincts?

My experience is that there exists a ballmer peak of alcohol consumption and hooking up. A little bit loosens you up, a bit more gets you to the perfect place, and then if you keep going you fuck it all up. Drinking with my friends tends to push to Stage 3 Blitzed fairly quickly.

My proposed solution for you, which the "field" has demonstrated as highly effective: pre-game with your friends before you go to whatever you're going to. During this pre-gaming, limit your time, consumption, or both. Depending on the people and the drinking tolerance, I go with something like 1 hour and 3 drinks.

You have two objects. First, to get loosened up by the booze, but not too loose. Second, and more importantly, to create an energetic state of back-and-forth shit-talking, banter, or whatever you do.

Then -- and this is important too -- you go to the destination and hit the ground running. Do not stay with your friends. Immediately spread your wings and fly. At a house party, you may have about 8 seconds when you arrive where 90% of the people are paying attention to you. High five the host, offer the booze you brought to everyone, etc. Then the rest of the night is already set up.

With some bars, an entrance like this can have the same effect; maybe you all head right to the bar and order a round of shots, or maybe you do something else, but you do it with high energy from the start.

The viciousness of the cycle is that you have to psyche yourself up late. Do the hard work early, and let your momentum do the work for you.

Important note: I walk to bars. If you drive, please don't pre-game like this.

Don't drink.

Do you masturbate? STOP!

If you do this, your body will force you to talk to women. Problem solved.

I feel you man. I think that we should try to continue having this kind of attitude but we must spend our time with people who are on the same level.

Have fun, do your thing. Make eye contact and don't look away. After you do this a couple times, go over and talk to her. Talk to her for a bit. Go back to having fun. Go talk to her again later.

She would have noticed you doing your own thing, having fun. She will be waiting for you to go over and talk to her.

You get over your instincts by actively making a change, not hoping for a trick. Clearly you have self discipline if you're starting a business, so use that in other aspects of life too.
