Burnout and boredom are dramatically different concepts. A young person is here asking for advice on burnout and you can't even give advice within the same zip code. That's really upsetting.
>Burnout and boredom are dramatically different concepts.
Are they though? I really can't imagine "burning out" on something I didn't find boring. And vice versa.
The rest of the advice seems to boil down to "take a break, then go back to the thing you were bored with". Not a great plan in my opinion. If you don't switch things up, you'll inevitably end up in the same place. Growth is the only option.
For your sake, I'm going to pray that you never experience a profoundly deep burnout in connection to a task you love. I'm old, I've suffered and I've watched others suffer in profound ways. Stay safe and healthy friend - I'm going to be really really sad if I ever hear that you're going through a burnout. :(
