I don't want to approach girls until I've "made it" in my mind. This seems decent and logical to me, but I've been told that it's literally crazy. Thoughts?

  It is literally crazy, and also a thought I have regularly as well

  Being a sociopath without an ego has got to be a positive selection trait. Big sad. Winners don't care if they're not winners, they just do things that lead to them being winners, I guess.

  Hmmm you're trying to simulate what a woman would think of you, which you can only do very generally, and not very accurately because they're so different from us. You can't see yourself from this outside perspective though, so it's mostly setting you up for failure. You shouldn't dwell much on what others think of you, just act! If you see a qt at the coffee shop, you can ask for her number, it's not actually a crime. The social stigma against approaching women is just a shit test.

  See, all my practice taught me you need a side approach instead though. Women are VERY cagey about directly giving you a number, if I were out for a girl’s digies and I HAD to get them I’d try something silly like jumping right in and pretending she’s someone I missed, an old friend from a job I quit and I lost that paper she wrote her number on.
  “oh my cassidy what are you doing here? it’s so good to see you! Don’t tell me you’re still working for wells fargo, right?” and then depending on how off-balance you have her, you either press the attack or wave it off. Once you “admit” you have the totally wrong person you get to play embarrassed, flash a really good, genuine smile, and apologize a little bit, depending on how relieved/amused she is then you can just say “well you could still gimme your number so I can make it up to you/share horror stories about wells fargo sometime”
  It’s a pinch of theatrics, a bit of salesmanship, but mostly you’re just assaulting her w/ a torrent of data to keep her on the back foot, where she doesn’t have any feminist programming telling her she betrays the sisterhood in giving in to your advances.
  (probably helps if you’re in a modicum of shape w/ somewhat masculine facial features, too. Not sure if ugly dudes w/ low confidence could do this)

  While I’m thinking about it, this is also an advert for a sales job, if you’re young and can spare the time on it. You learn a lot about dealing w/ people, talking to them, bulldozing their responses and steering them where you want.
  Great learning experience for those smart enough to pay attention.
