If you can power through it then you've never been in a burnout situation. Burnouts build up over months, if not years to the point you are no longer able to function. It's not that hard to avoid them if you remain aware of how your environment impacts how you feel and don't just walk around ignoring an environment that puts you in a constant negative state. Anyway, I do agree that it's an overused term. Some people just need a holiday, a change of job or a different romantic partner and they'll be fine in a short amount of time.
