One word. Practise. Everywhere you can, as often as you can. Practise playing stuff by bands you all like and know, and listen to each other and make it as much fun as possible. I was in a band with this one guy who was only ever talking about being the best and making things happen, and as a result people with genuine ideas about where to take the band were intimidated and didn't like sharing their opinions.

Best thing to do is treat it as a bit of fun, because if you don't enjoy it then it's a pointless exercise.
