Don't be afraid to get out there an risk a little. The whole point of the article and the fictitious letter (no it wasn't a real letter) is that we all make these mistakes at time. We are trying to enourage awareness and learning The letter is an amalgam of the numerous mistakes we have make over the years. That said, we have seen all these mistakes numerous times both in our own business and in the contractors that we work with. You will rarely make them all in one letter, bet don't be surprised if some slip by. It happens to the best of us. Some clients may see you as childish - other will hail you as their hero.
