Not being passionate about what you're doing at work is your sign that perhaps it's a good time to leave. Of course, find another job first and then leave.
Before you do that, take an honest assessment of why you're no longer passionate about your current employer. You need to understand why they no longer scratch your itch, why they no longer excite you. See if you can identify traits to be on the lookout for when seeking new employment. You'd really hate to leave one place that's not exciting you just to go somewhere else that's not exciting you, either.
You could go deeper inside, like a samurai code monk, and let nothing of impermanence affect you.
Either way, the burnout comes the days after the crash! Best way to not burn out is not crash!
Stay off stimulants, eat decently and exercise regularly, these will clear the mind and stave off burnout like it is a pesky cold that only comes when you are too lazy in your ways you didn’t see it coming!
