Experience vs Initiative

At what point do we become "not good enough" in our eyes? At what point do we stop posting the majority of what we make because we feel it's not up to snuff? At what point do we stop becoming unafraid to create for the sake of creation?
I feel like none of the stories I come up with are good enough to post, hence the drought of content. When I was younger on my other account, I posted lots of stories. Even if, looking back, they were kinda bad. I'm just musing at what point I stopped posting everything to try and meet some standard or another for writing.
I'll try and capture some of that youthful vigor going forward, posting whatever and not caring what critics think...but at the same time I want to improve as a writer, to try and be better. It's tough to balance that out...
