The over riding premise seems to be, get feedback. Always a good reminder.
However, this can be taken too far and contributed to me leaving my last job. I was pushed for review on too many things, in my opinion. It got to the point where it was a waste of time trying to decide anything for myself. I had to invite people from multiple disciplines in the off chance a good idea would surface. Not only did it demoralize the experts, it slowed progress from weeks to months with no appreciable difference in quality. Most meetings were met with little or no feedback because the people involved had no experience in the stack. Most suggestions were to solve the problem within their own area of expertise, the web service guy would always suggest a web service, the DBA would always suggest TSQL, etc.
What I would recommend is develop the ability to recognize when more feedback would be beneficial and schedule a review or meeting for that and act like a working professional and take responsibility when things don't go perfectly. Which suggests the real root of the problem and need for getting feedback all the time...
