Some of the common mistakes that I see at the gym are ego. You're trying to out lift the next person.
Trying to compete.
Trying to max out every time you work out.
Why do you want to do that?
You're going to put yourself prone to many injuries.
Honestly, you should probably lift at maybe 65% to 75% of your maximum weight.
Rep counts should be 12 to 15 reps, 15 to 18 reps, or 10 to 12 reps.
You don't need to compete against anybody except yourself.
That's it.
