  You gain respect from others who get shit done by getting shit done.
I have often found it ("getting shit done") contagious. Somehow it feels right to roll up the sleeves when people around you do the same.


Getting shit done is contagious. Be very careful to work out what kind of shit the people who get shit done are doing before you start hanging out with people who get shit done. A whole lot of shit might happen. You might get done. Or everyone could end up in shit.

Alternatively, cool shit might get done. I'd say hang around with people who want to do cool shit and kick their arses into getting shit done if necessary.
