I've noticed that this is a perpetual problem of mine. Regardless of whether I'm going for multiple girls at once or just one girl at a time. I'll still act like the girl I'm going for is the ONLY girl in the world. How can I change this mindset?
"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
How to NOT act like she's the only girl in the world?

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

+1!
Tell yourself not to be so naive and easy.
No girl is YOUR dream girl until she actually PROVES herself to you.
... and should never be based on looks alone.
So, approach the girl with a mindset where you want to see if she qualifies for your personal criteria!

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

How do you express that she isn't the only girl in conversation or other ways without saying it directly?

She is not. Look for another one.How to NOT act like she's the only girl in the world?

Let me get this clear. So if you are seeing three girls you treat each one like they are the only girl in the world?
Explain in detail how exactly do you treat them like the only girl in the world. What exactly do you do? because until you explain everyone above is just taking shots in the dark at your "problem". We need more info and facts. Spell it out.

i feel like i do this also but my advice would be to try to interact with that one girl less. Call her less, hit up multiple girls at a time, etc

because there are around 3,000,000,000 women in this sorry planet, so why fuss over 1?
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
