Of course, this is part of building social momentum and can put you in state. Although after a while I'd suggest not using this as a crutch. It seems to be holding me back right now as a limiting belief,"I must approach a warm up before I attempt to go for that amazingly hot girl."
With the "I am enough" mentality, In state or out of state, momentum or not, I am me and will remain me. I can approach anyone in any situation, remain congruent and flow naturally..
Get it?
