Daniel,
I'm a fast writer but a slow thinker. It takes me time to come up with what I want to write in a scene, and I often write and then throw stuff out. While I'm typing, though, I'm a whiz!
The thing is, it doesn't matter how many words you put out in a day. What matters is that you keep at it and that you work on your book every day. Your speed will (probably) increase with practice. And one day you'll find yourself typing "the end."
Hang on. As people say, it isn't a sprint, it's a marathon, and I'll add: It doesn't matter if you race across the finish line or drag yourself across on your elbows. Once you finish, you've won!
