Use this "inner AFC" to motivate yourself.
Say you feel unconfident sometimes. Think hard about just WHAT it is that you are insecure about.
Fix it.
There. You are that much better.
Say you think about a certain girl all the time. Think hard about WHY you feel that way.
Ask yourself just WHY you elevate her to a goddess. (Maybe you are desperate?-->Meet more girls. Maybe she has a trait that you love?-->Develop that trait within yourself.)
Ask yourself WHY you are nervous around her. (i.e. Why would she reject you?-->shows you what you need to fix)
Trying to 'trick' yourself into ignoring your inner insecurities will just make you stubborn and blind. Use the inner AFC as the lens by which you can observe all your deepest faults, and instead of whining and lamenting your weaknesses, you should WORK on them and IMPROVE.
I seek out the most perfect girls, the ones that I am hesitant to ask out, for the SOLE PURPOSE of motivating myself. Once I feel comfortable and free with a girl, it is off to find a better one.
To grab one girl and hold on to her, no matter how hot she is, would only anchor me in my current state, I feel. What motivation do you have to improve when you have a beautiful, sexy woman on your arm? What are you accomplishing by being with women that you are ALREADY confortable with?
No, I would rather make myself better and better by using women for motivation. (Among other things...but a woman is kind of like a couch, as someone once told me.) Drag the AFC out piece by piece and have him help you build a new you.
