15+ years in the "industry" and I'm slowly losing my ability to be self motivated. I'm tired of the grind most days.

But any time someone comes to me with a problem they're stuck on, I'm instantly motivated.

Am I burnt out or just transitioning?

    Yeah, as @jestdotty said, I've had projects I enjoyed previously and could burn days on without issue, but as soon as I had other priorities, they started to grind on me and make me tired when working on them.

    Transitioning.

    Perhaps you should try something less grindy - a slightly different role.

    (It's very easy to get opportunities like that within a large company if you mention it to your manager)
