I have a few thoughts.
First, it takes a while to get burnt out, so you can't expect to get un-burnt-out in a week.
For me, there have been a few things that have worked well:
- Change the situation that led to your burn out. In my case, it was mostly job-created. If you can't address the root cause, it's hard to get better.
- Make a list of the things that you haven't been getting done that you'd like to get done.
- Work at the list, slowly.
So what other advice can you give?

I usually try to focus on #1.
If you love what you are doing then you can't burn out doing it; it is only when aspects that you do not like sap your energy so much that even the things you do like suffer, tht you have trouble.
Obviously you cannot always do it 100%, but I always try to get as close to it as I can....Anonymous

I usually get out with my family to a place where I know I won't have distractions. Usually it's a state park cottage with no internet connection, no real need for phones. However, I don't indulge in the 500 activities around me. A book, some CDs and good company will do just fine.
On another good day you can try boating and fishing ..... in short anything that puts the mind in neutral gear and lets it idle.Anonymous

To me, the key is the diversity. Yes, I can say that I love coding, but that’s too broad of a statement. If you liked candies but had access to only MandM’s, well, that’d divert you from your passion pretty quick, wouldn’t it? The same with coding. Projects (or parts of the projects) that I am working on for too long are eventually becoming the old story, I’m just loosing interest.
Again, all projects are different - there are interesting projects, boring projects, and I don't have a formula to calculate what time span would be considered "too long" or "okay". Something tells me there's got to be one though...Anonymous

Do something you enjoy daily. Even if its just for a few minutes. For me, I play enemy territory online with friends and also play the guitar. The latter is easier because my daughter likes to help me play my guitars. I almost never fail in doing one or even both of these for a short period of time each day, especially playing ET online, because then i can't focus on anything else but the game, and I got lost in it, and things are ok for a short while.Anonymous

Along these same lines I asked people what are the expectations within our field... and how do we avoid Developer Burnout.
