This is why code review exists. Writer's can't always see what's wrong with their work, because they have the bias of knowing what was intended. You need a reader to see it with fresh eyes and tell you what parts are confusing.
That's not to say you shouldn't try to make it readable in the first place. But reviewing and reading other people's code is how you get better.
