How do I fix this?

that's normal, especially for trad or involved pieces
speed comes with proficiency and/or simplifying

no you don't
watch their damn process
speedpaints are not a process breakdown; they're a speed-up, truncated performance of the process, usually with the sketch phase cut or severely understated
actually watch these people you know go through their entire process and understand what they're actually doing - they are people you know and not strangers on the internet, right?
i've personally never seen anyone that i would not consider to be an absolute master (KJG is a good example) produce something of extremely high and finished quality in under 30min-1hr. that's NOT me saying other people suck, that's me saying what >>7372879 said with an emphasis on the importance of understanding exactly what the people you admire go through to make their work.

you "seen" the chef make the perfect ravioli, but were you in the kitchen while they were pressing the pasta, or making the filling, or making a substitution when a spice was missing, or when they were plating it? if you haven't, did you *really* seen them make it? or are you seeing their confidence and their output and equating it solely to talent?
speed comes with confidence, confidence comes with exposure and experience, speed does not necessarily guarantee a good output
