How do you stay motivated to play the game?
I'm having a hard time staying motivated to play the game because no matter what you do you end up doing the same actions for different sims that have the same result all the way around. Even challeng...

Good advice in this thread.
The only challenges I play are ones that I create myself too. Other ways of playing don't really interest me.
I turn aging off and on as needed. Even in the same save. If I want a sim to die naturally I turn aging on for that house. When I rotate to a different household I turn it off again.
It takes me a really, really long time to progress through generations. I think I have a child in my game who been at that stage for 6 RL months. He's making friends and hunting frogs.
I hook sims up, then break them up, then get them together with other sims, get bored and break them up etc.
I guess some would say I completely mess with my sims lives and wreak total havoc on them. Some of my sims who I thought would be together forever end up growing apart and finding different paths.
Some of my sims have multiple baby mamas or daddys. I usually just do this on a whim. It's interesting to see who ends up related to each other.
I am avid CC and mod user. It saved my game. My sims no longer look the same. They're different. I can also explore different styles of play. I use custom traits/careers to shake things up.
I watch let's plays for ideas and some laughter.
When all else fails I walk away from the game. Sims don't care and they will be exactly how I left them when I return. And when I return most of the time I realize why I was so bored and shake things up and wreak some havoc.
@MLadyAzzera I like the idea of keeping a journal. I'm going to give this a shot.
