Do you find the Sims 4 challenging?

There are certain things that take time, which is what makes it sometimes challenging. There are times I'm tempted to cheat, but I try as much as possible to stick with it and do it the hard way. I got stuck on the doctor career. If I recall, it took about four or five weeks (real time) for my sim to finally get a patient who had to deliver. She needed this in order to get promoted to the next level. Completing collections or maxing a skill can also take a lot of time and patience. I remember one of my sims struggled to catch the red tailed shark to complete his fish collection, and that took a looong time. My archeologist still hasn't found or assembled all the relics yet.
