It Might Not Be Perfect, But It’s My Post

It happens all the time, I’m about to submit a post but before I do, something stops me, suddenly, I’m full of doubt, eventually though, after a while of editing, I finally submit it, the problem is, it doesn't really feel like my post anymore, I’ve changed the words and sentences so many times, my voice has been lost in the process, maybe it does sound better and gets more views than the original one, but is it really worth it? Or is it pointless to submit a post that doesn’t even have your voice? An opinion that has lost it’s essence? Why do we continue making posts we don’t agree with? What is more important, claps or authenticity? Why would anyone post something they don’t really like? Does this just happen to me, or can you relate?
