My advice: split your work into two camps, the types of projects you would be happy if everybody used and benefited from (even without crediting you), and the types of projects that you would not be happy seeing others republish without your name. Choose a permissive license like MIT for the former, and keep the latter closed source.

In my case[1], although I have several hundred MIT repos, I have many others that I feel an emotional connection to and do not share publicly.
