If we pay close attention to our actions and the typical outcomes of those actions it would be evident that there are frequently occurring patterns that develop. And there is a relation between the patterns.

A Fixes that Fail structure is one where the applied fix makes things better for a while and then things go awry. There is a also a video for this insight which is a component of the Systems Archetypes Course.
