Good day to all.
Before, I was very enthusiastic towards my work. I always feel excited and energetic. Even I am exhausted, still, I feel recharge on the following day of work. No matter how tired I am, still, I will wake-up very early to prepare my self in going to the office.
However, now a days, the enthusiastic feeling that I have before suddenly disappear. For unknown reason, I just felt it. That one day, when I woke-up, I have just felt that I dont want to go to the same office again. Its not because I am tired neither exhausted. I dont know exactly the reason why I felt this.
And now, the only thing that pushes me to go for work is that, I need to save some money in order for me to landed into another job while lending a hand to one of my friend.
Can somebody advise me on how to handle this situation. Is there any thing that I need to do for me to feel the enthusiasm once again?

In my humble opinion, I think you pushed too hard. You pushed too hard till you get burnt out. You overindulged working till you feel that you're tired of it. You already said it, even if you're exhausted, you still go to work. I don't think that's good. You pushed too much.
I think all you need is a quality time off. Enjoy your personal life and try to set boundaries between your life and work.
You can still try to rethink it. Try to figure out what's going on. Are you just bored of the job? Do you want a bigger challenge? Do you want additional task? Reflect and take it from there.
Good Luck!

What made you want to work at this office in the first place? What kind of relationships do you have with your co workers?
What is your favorite thing to do at the office? What makes that special for you?
Just think about those questions as you are in the office, and see what happens!
Sincerely and With Appreciation.
