Is it really the responsibility of the high performer in any field of work, to help others catch up?

Would it be your responsibility?

I guess because there have been too many times when people tried to take credits for my work, I learnt to hold back a little bit and not be too quick to help them succeed. And not invest as much as I know I can in their betterment. I also feel very bitter about ethical conflicts. I don't want to be stuck dealing with what I think are the basics and ''arguing" for them. It takes away from my efficiency. I do enjoy sharing great outcomes with my coworkers and succeeding. I don't enjoy arriving there by means of stressful communication and clashes.
I interfere when their failure leads to harm for other people. And I guess I just dictate what should be done, to buy time, which doesn't change matters long term. Without conviction, things are bound to return to how they used to be as soon as I turn away. Definitely not the pro-social type even if I do have my charms and I am liked by many. I am the sort of person who functions best alone but that can be counterproductive. I want by large to have better lives, not just myself.

You don't want to stick out at work. Management will just put more tasks/responsibility on you.

Coworkers tend to do the least possible.

@Crazywaterspring Lmao

I am not sure I want to deal with this ethical clash here too.
