Editors. Their job is to take our pile of words, tell us where we can't see the forest for the trees, and help us craft something that does much more than just "tell a story".

I've learned something from every editor I've worked with. If you have never had that pleasure, then you might want to consider getting professional feedback on your story or novel. It's well worth it.
