I think this is a great thread topic, and a tough question. Burnout is a common thing at all levels of competition and training. Some people get past it and continue to advance. Many people quit as a result of burnout or simply because of lack of interest.
I'm looking forward to hearing more P-F wisdom about burnout. Here are some of my thoughts on the topic:
1. Consider quitting. Seriously consider it, and see how that feels. If shooting has become burdensome, and doesn't make you happy, why continue? Would you sell your guns if you quit shooting? How would that make you feel?
2. Why do you train and compete? What's your motivation, and why did it go away? Do you train for competition, self-defense, fun, ?
3. Do you have a
growth mindset? Are you inspired by the excellence of other competitors? Or do they make you feel bad about yourself?
4. Maybe the type of shooting you've been doing is boring, and you need to try something else? Personally, I can't imagine training very hard if steel challenge was all I was training for.
I really like the book
Match Mentality by Ben Stoeger. Lanny Bassham's
With Winning in Mind is a classic.
