Based on my experience while I was just getting into poker, I made some mistakes as a newbie. It's okay to make mistakes because it's part of the journey to becoming a pro. Learning from your mistakes makes a big difference.

As a new bird, avoid the following costly mistakes:

1) Don't chase losses.
2) Don't play with many hands.
3). Avoid overbetting or underbetting.

These few steps will get you started on a better note if you're new to poker.
 
New players also fold on the flop way too often. They also don't consider position enough IMO.
 
I believe another problem that most new poker players face is lack of composure. Most opponents can detect a newbie by their body language, resulting in the opponent predicting their next move.

I make a continuation between(cbet) on 80% of the flops, when I raise preflop.
