Tell yourself that you can either suffer the regret of not talking to her or you can talk to her, again realize you have something to gain and nothing to lose :) Just go into it and realize you probably won't see the same girl twice.

Something tells me this will result in rejects only and a warning page about the OP on facebook.

I think Wolfheart has a point, in that the fear aspect is usually only improved by exposure to the fear.

I don't believe fears are often conquered as in they never come back. Instead I think its a matter of pushing them back by becoming used to them. One approach is to regularly expose yourself to that fear at a low level. After a time it becomes easier and then you move up a notch to begin trying things a more scary, and then become more comfortable at that level.

In this case rather then go for broke, like in asking someone out, etc, instead try to just find a lower level goal like having a short conversation with a girl. It doesn't have to be someone you have a crush on, and it can be very short, like just greeting them (ie. How's it going?). From there try to progress to slightly longer ones, etc. The initial idea is becoming more comfortable being around and talking with girls in general.

Not sure your age, but is there some activity you could join or participate in that brings you together with both guys and girls ?
Like some club or activity at school ? Or perhaps at community center. Can you volunteer to do some charity work ? If you are working with people it is easier to have conversations then if you are just standing around trying to think of something to say.

You pretty much just gotta "Just do it." There's no other way around it, besides drugs perhaps.
