Do you not talk to your coworkers and understand how they spend their time? This should come first. Maybe they spend half their time socializing. Maybe your code is voluminous but ridden with subtle bugs, and your teammates are spending more time testing and doing good design. Maybe they are splitting their time between other projects or tasks. Maybe you are the only one with job security.
Working for a company, on a team, is different than just being a solo contributor. Teammate relations can be leveraged to create a better product through, well, teamwork. I want people to be happy and effective at their jobs, myself included. I try to work with others, understand what they are doing, and do things that directly or indirectly contribute to their efforts and even unite efforts across individuals and teams. There are usually inefficiencies that come from lack of communication. Talk to your coworkers and manager and adjacent teams and understand better why things work the way they do, stop just running off and racking up story points, it is not a race.
