In systems thinking parlance, "compensating feedback" occurs when well$-$intentioned interventions call forth responses from the system that offset the benefits of the intervention. When we encounter compensating feedback, and we push harder, the system pushes back harder, so that the more effort you expend trying to improve matters, the more effort seems to be required. Fortunately, "compensating feedback" is limited to large, impersonal systems as encountered, for example, in many engineering problems. It seldom occurs in living systems, such as in individual lives$/$jobs or in social systems, because people within systems will not choose to push back on well$-$planned interventions.
