Practice Makes Perfect buffs too powerful

@HeroicJay I'm not sure that should be happening, have you tried testing it without mods? Testing on my Sim, she stops being focused and becomes Inspired instead, until she does something to achieve skill points. So for example if she starts cooking/gourmet cooking. Once they start working towards a skill again it begins.

Here's the Sims Wiki Guide definition:

".... Sims can take a Soothing Shower, which will give them the +2 "Clear Mind" inspired moodlet...."

I'm on Xbox Series X so no mods/cheats. I first discovered it while testing for another thread where we were trying to obtain maximum long lasting focus and I wasn't at all happy the shower washed it all away!

Perhaps the Retraiting Potion is the answer after all if your Sim achieves the 5000 points required. There is a cheat for that which I haven't tested (I'm on console and we lose our trophies) I found it on Carl's Sims Guide but you may have used it before. So with Control + Shift + C testingcheats on.

"Gives a Sim x amount of satisfaction points with which you can buy rewards. Sims.give_satisfaction_points 5000"

That's if you want to free your Sim from it altogether anyway now you've tried out the new trait if it's not for you. Particularly if this is a legacy Sim for you.
