It's called building up rhythm and building up positive momentum. Let's consider Kobe Bryant, when you watch Kobe Bryant play, he has this rhythm and this focus. For him to obtain this nice smooth rhythm he warms up and establishes that rhythm and focus.
I learned this method from Tyler Durden of Real Social Dynamics of how to reach state. This method works even when you are out of state or feeling tired or you've came late in the venue.
First, consider reaching state as two slippery hills. Now consider how to build momentum to reach the 1st and 2nd hill? There are various ways to build your momentum, either from pumping yourself up, listen to pump up music...etc. But, the best way I believe is to approach girls that don't intimidate you and to have your criteria for success to solely open them. Having a small goal to accomplish like to just open will be easy to accomplish and if they reject you, you have still accomplished your goal of opening. So what are the reasons to set your goals so low? The reason is so that your brain will only see the upside to things and build positive momentum. If you set your goals to high (getting numbers or taking a girl home) and if you don't accomplish them, then you will gain negative momentum. Now the next thing to consider is not to stop or stagnate in between your approaches. Remember that your momentum build up is like climbing a slippery hill, if you stop or stagnate you will slide back down the hill. If you continuously open girls and don't stop in between interaction, you will reach the first hill of state.
Now the first hill will represent your warm up, there are two hills because most of the times guys tend to stay on the first hill. The first hill is called "fucking the warm up." Where you literally take the warm up home and fuck them. This sucks and you will regret it later ... I sure did the first 2 times

. So once you've reached the first hill it is time to approach/open girls that you are truly intimidated by (hot girls). Again you success criteria is to just open, if you open and don't stop in between interaction you will build positive momentum to reach the 2nd hill. Don't worry, once you've reach either the first or 2nd hill you will not lose momentum and stay in state. The best thing about this is that, since your brain will only sees the positive side to things, and you continuously provide your brain evidence that you are the shit. Your looks starts to change, girls and people will want to approach you and even will start saying that you are cute, or that you are the best guy they've meet that night. Basically, your brain receives proof that you are the shit, you start believing that you are the shit, then people will start treating you like you are the shit.
Now, let say that you do get blown/rejected for every approach. Don't worry about this for one you've accomplished your goal of opening, and second this will force you to draw state from with in. Since your environment has proven to be hostile you will be force to draw state from with in and be center. So when you do approach the truly intimidating girl, and she gives you shitty bull shit tests, you will be non reactive to this and stay "icy". Therefore, resulting you with attracting the girl and ultimately pulling!
This method is consistent and simple to reach state! Plus, it is super fun!
Basically, the momentum build up will bleed through the night, bleed through the day, bleed through the week, bleed through the month, and will bleed through the years! Because these are experience you are obtaining, if you learn or make a mistake you will learn from it and be able to counter it the next time a girl throws some BS test at you because you've experienced it before.
Hahaha, I love this shit! The reason I love the game!
