Since starting to cold approach 3 weeks ago, I've been going out and meeting girls every day. Today, I think I'm at the point where it's starting to feel more natural, and I could start branching out and away from having the same old phrasing and awkwardness, and lean more into being confident.
Before today, I'd made a connection (enough to have their phone numbers) with about 5 girls total.
Today, I approached 11 total women and got 5 rejections, 1 "neutral" interaction (which I count anyone who reacts positively or negatively, but who I don't ask to go on a date nor get the number of nor get rejected by), and 5 more numbers, which feels incredible to me as someone who considered himself awkward around girls.
September 7th, I can feel good about my efforts for today. Leveling myself up bit by bit.
*edit: still awkward with girls, turns out. Old habits die hard. Not stopping me from trying tho

My crash course in learning how to text well started yesterday, now it's time to get the show on the road!
That's awesome man, congrats! How are you doing your approaches? Day or night? Solo?

I'm doing all my approaches during the day. I live on a college campus (with a roommate), which has some complications to it but really puts me in a position to improve even with my anxiety.
I do them all solo, haven't yet found anyone who I vibe with about meeting girls (all the other guys I've met who were interested were just aiming for sex, no connection nor empathy). Still looking, but hard to say I approach ladies during the day and invite people to join me in the endeavor. Journaling my approaches each day helps though.
