Intentionally avoiding the SMP?

Putting it off now is the equivalent of putting off gym for some unnecessary reason. Go out and approach now when you are not at your best, get used to rejection and be an iron wall when you feel you're at your best.

You are hamstering, and it makes you sound like a bitch. What's the worst that can happen if you interact with a chick now? Rejection? Good. Fuel the hate. What's the best? You could get an easy fuck. Stop hamstering and start doing something.

Depends on what else you could be doing with your time. Certainly early on you're better developing a strong network of male friends than putting much effort into meeting women. Once you've got friends who can help you improve, perhaps simply by being good examples to follow, you would want to expand your socializing to include women.

Its approach anxiety. Bask in rejection. Let the feedback fill your veins. Learn to laugh it off but remind you that there's work to be done. The great part is that as long as you're doing you job and approaching you're gonna keep getting rej cited. Infinite muscle fuel.

Essentially, you're in a sort of Monk Mode right now. I have been for the past couple months too. I want to cut about an extra 13% body fat from my body down to 10% because I feel like that's a big inhibitor to my degree of success.

While I'm not approaching as much as I used to, if I see IOIs or a girl I just want to approach at the moment, I do. For instance, there's this Latina chick in my math class, and I always see her at the college library — so one day I just went and sat next to her and we hit it off pretty well.

Anyways, the best thing to do is probably to keep practicing Day/Night game to either 1) be successful with a handful of girl or 2) become accustomed to rejection and further mold your abundance mentality.

DO NOT ignore your social standing. Refraining from approaching chicks is one thing, but pulling out of your social atmosphere can be detrimental. I'm pushing hard right now to expand my social circle and improve its quality — it can be argued that your social circle the most important thing in your life.

You're talking about monk mode.

Don't do it. Keep approaching while you work on your appearance.

Maybe it's a form of male hamstering but I'm just being practical and want to give myself the best possible chance of success / securing a number or date.

Yes it's male hamstering. Best possible chance of securing a date = work on the physique AND your mental game.
