What's My Burnout %? Burnout Index Test

The warning light is blinking. Not collapsed — but that spark, the one that used to make things feel worth doing? It's barely flickering. After work you just want to lie down. Making weekend plans sounds exhausting for some reason. Here's the thing: this isn't burnout fully locked in — this is actually the golden window. Start recharging now and you bounce back fast. The person who plugs in at 7% is the one who lasts.
When someone close asks "hey, you good?" the answer that comes out is "yeah just tired" — not because you're hiding anything, but because you don't want to make it a whole thing. Honestly you'd rather just be quiet for a while. When someone says "I'll just sit with you" without needing anything in return, that's the thing that actually helps right now.
Keeping the quality up, but grinding to do it — ideas aren't flowing like they used to. Zoning out in meetings more, and "I'm not staying late" is becoming a real, loud internal policy. Ignoring this signal and pushing harder is how you go from low-battery to deep-rest-mode. One small daily routine is real productivity management at this stage.
Something in between wanting to rest and not letting yourself rest turns into buying things or ordering food. Post-work convenience store stops with things that weren't on any list, or opening an app and filling a cart without a clear reason — those days are adding up. That spending is a pressure valve right now, and the real check-in is whether it helps even a little or just leaves you feeling the same.
