One lesson I'm walking away with: it's invaluable to share the solution you're building with others, just to get their perspective. The approach you're convinced is the best one isn't always the right one.
Stay open to exploring alternatives, and adopt a "solution architecture" mindset — factor in the other variables that matter just as much as the technical elegance: cost, scalability, user context, maintainability.
Sometimes the smartest move isn't building the cleverest solution. It's building the right one.
