Perhaps psychologists or other professionals also suffer from the Aaron Principle. We receive little or no credit for our extraordinary efforts. We are forgotten unless and until it is necessary to blame someone.

If it were merely a situation faced by psychologists, there would be nothing to discuss. After all, many people do their jobs from nine to five without expecting a reward.

However, some people simply invest efforts and then suffer for it.

Furthermore, our goal is not to show how wonderful and self-effacing we are. We should deal with clients who place themselves in this position, or those who suffer from the Aaron Principle.

Should we boost their egos, and tell them to cast aside their complexes shown by the Aaron Principle? Perhaps we should be happy when some people are less pushy than others. However, this trait does take its toll in the client's self-esteem.

On the other hand, should we explain that they are better than others on our planet, and that they should maintain their fine qualities? If so, how do we explain that they are not within the norm of healthy individuals?

Sadly, it may be difficult to find a significant number of case studies for this study. The number of people who can accept a lower status in life seems to be diminishing all the time.
