Low energy and meaningless procrastination is tell tell signs, also time spent on twitter or youtube is.
I became some kind of expert in managing my pre-burn out parts. I usually recognize that it is happening, and take a break for 1 day or 2. I also have an accountability buddy with whom we speak once a week and update each other on our projects. So talking to them also helps me to get out of that rut. Sometimes outside perspective helps.
But yeah my thing is: recognize it's happening, take a break (if you can), and talk to somebody who's not in your field.
