Learn to pause your train of thought and say, "I don't know, what do others think?" I find myself sometimes realising that I am talking a lot about something and then I wonder how it must come across. e.g. "The only proper way to do this is with microservices, this other idea seems to be doomed to fail....I don't know, what do others think?" Works wonders and helps you to realise something that you might not have thought about without sounding like a dickhead.
