Prepare yourself well by thinking ahead. It is best to sit down coolly and visualize the sequence of events as they might unfold when you propose. Run an imaginary conversation in your mind. This will help you gain your bearings, and go ahead with the proposal.

The most important thing is to think out in advance what you will do in the worse scenario? What happens if your proposal meets with rejection? It is best to be positive in such an eventuality. Tell yourself that you will not be unduly depressed if the proposal does not pan out. Think of a suitable reaction or a thing to say, and also what you will do later on.
