I can empathize with this, but I also have the problem that I'm nearing 60 and I'm working with guys in their 20s and 30s.
So now I'm trying to become more of a "mentor". Particularly now that everything is WFH and remote, a lot of the bullshit that people used to use in the office to promote themselves has been stripped away.
So it's easier to recognize actual talent, and when I do, I try to make sure that when I do something, I do everything I can to get people to understand what I did and, more importantly, why.
So now, I see my "output" as not necessarily my code (I still write it) but the people in the teams I work with.
