Yes, this is holding me back!

I have a bunch of stuff on GitHub, obsessing over every code comment, never to be read by anyone else. The few lines of code that are there are cared for meticulously. Yet these projects don't really DO much and therefore receive minimal attention.

Just the thought of these things being public "forever" is stifling.
