I work a rather demanding job and I’ve constantly been feeling tired and underperformant compared to my colleagues for the past few months. I keep evading responsibilities or putting them off until the last minute.

Many people would kill to be where I am. Yet, I show up every day unmotivated.

There were several stressful years leading up to my current job and I’m wondering if I’m burnt out at this point or if I’m just not pulling my weight.

Edit: Thank you all for your support and guidance. I haven’t given too many details here, but personal life has been moving along smoothly, chores get done, etc. But I definitely need to reconsider where I’m going with my job.

    My humble opinion: burnout exists, laziness doesn’t

    Laziness is a buzzword concept to describe way too many states of mind, downplaying the causes of lack of motivation.

    I think there are some words that, if avoided, allow deeper investigation into important things, and “lazy” is in the top 10 of that list
