Holy snakes that's the exact same position I'm in. I still suck at finishing stories, shipping stuff etc.
One thing that I've learned to boost my speed a little bit up is:
1. Ask tones of questions before implementation, even if they're stupid ask. Asking and knowing the right thing will help you prevent wasting time building something that wasn't needed
2. Ship the simplest piece of code that solves the problem. Don't be afraid if it's not fancy, or not optimised. You'll think of that later on.
3. Then before you go down to code, please spend almost an hour brain storming the entire problem through, think through all entire edge cases required for the problem.
4. I also sucked at stand up meetings , terrified I hadn't finished my stories. Keep them short 2 max, at least explain how far you've gone with the problem. If you don't have anything to show, at least mention something related to your progress.
Lastly , budget your time and always be optimistic , I've realised most things I presumed were hard but as long you're optimistic and tackle them , some how you find yourself shipping things
