"I'm not a designer" is a lie and a cop out. It's not making things pretty; it's being intentional.
Over time, with practice, it will become habit, and you'll start tackling new and bigger and higher-level user scenarios.
The first step is thinking like a designer. Ask questions: "what's the user trying to do?" "What are their pain points?"
Every bit of work that you do affects somebody. Be intentional about it. Design good and positive experiences for others.
