Quality vs Quantity

The perfectionist in me feels like I should be a powerhouse and every post needs to be a super in depth blog post with an entire study.

The true to the cause part of me feels like I should post "every day".
I'm scared of making "token low effort posts" to fill up the dates but this seems like a self-imposed blocker.

It will help me build up consistency.

Peace out!
