Burnout is your brain giving up because it doesn’t think the benefit is worth the effort anymore. If you don’t have a purpose for what you are doing all your brain will do is obsess over the negatives. Every job in the world has massive negatives. You have to find a positive purpose for what you are doing to balance the negative.

Even a low key sane culture will feel like a soul sucking grey blob of a life it you don’t do it in service of something you care about: supporting your family, cabinetry side business, rock climbing passion or whatever.
