What's the biggest mistake you see people make in their early 20s when they're just getting started (in their careers)?

You've put yourself in a bunch of "secret societies" i.e. pick up artists etc and then written about them later. Do you still maintain good relationships with people in these different societies or do some resent you for putting it all out there?

How do you "test" if your fiction writing is good or not before you publish it? i.e. non-fiction authors can test whether their material actually solves a problem for their audience or not. What's the equivalent for fiction?

Lots of people feel like they "have to accomplish X" before they can truly feel good about themselves. How do you detach from that mindset? Like how can someone feel comfortable about their career, social skills, health, etc if they haven't done anything to feel confident in that area?
