Burnout might just come down to needing a relaxation of the mind. I know I made my post over a week ago now about closing down my social medias and what's funny in my case I've began getting texted more by the girls that are actually interested in seeing me. Because my life is no longer easily accessible they wanna know what i'm up to and therefore have initiated contact more. Now aside from that, I've been going to my gym and doing two-a-days to keep my mind occupied and I recently purchased a microphone set to begin doing my own podcast work with a couple of my best friends.
My point is, you gotta block out the noise. Social media is noise and nonsense. I do still have twitter to keep up with sports news, but otherwise just living a tad more simplistically can help free your mind and that whole burnout thing eventually evades. Use your mental energy towards things that can be of value to your life, and by life I mean your actual physical life. And stay out of the AOL chatrooms Mecca.

22 years ago (youngish punk, just built a new house-as in GC not "had built for me", kids...........) I was making the guy I worked for serious bank. I was making really really good coin as well.
I told him I wanted to be a shareholder. He told me "you do what you do and I do what I do, nothing more is available right now". I got up, told him thanks (I was serious because I needed that clarification). 4 months later I took another sales guy with me, our lead operations guy and started the company we have today. We were backed by (at the time) a 90 year old company in Portland of which I am now one of the owners. I laid in bed at night for several weeks saying wtf did I just do. My wife told me to grow some stones and get on with it. It is meant to be. So I guess my point is this- You know your worth. If you are worth it, grow some stones and get on with it. |

There's a lot of people above me that make A LOT of money but they have no time to spend it, no one left to spend it with/on, and so on. At some point one has to ask what they want out of life and what that means for work. I haven't experienced any burnout since I finally decided that work=work and nothing more. |
