What aspirations do you use the most and plan to complete?

I’ve completed the child one, Artistic Prodigy with at least two different Sims now.
The other one I know I’ve completed is Master Chef.

I am working on a Mansion Baron and Bestselling Author a Super Parent and a Musical Genius in my current family/families right now.

I pursue aspirations based on character, traits, career and my overall judgement of the invidual Sim; not because of the bonus trait.

Completed: Painter Extraordinaire, Best Selling Author, Super Parent, Fabulously Wealthy, Archaeology Scholar, Jungle Explorer & Good Vampire.

Aspirations I really want to complete someday: Renaissance Sim, City Native, Freelance Botanist :D

I always do the Wealthy first so I can get the shrewd trait. I want to complete the City Native one but I hate living in the apartments because of the annoying neighbors

You don't have to live in the city to complete it, you have to meet people in the city and eat at food stalls.
I almost always do the outdoor retreat ones, my sims spend most of their life camping.

I thought one of the goals was to give someone an apartment key?

According to Carls Guide, one of the very first goals is to give someone an apartment key and one of the very last goals is to own an apartment worth 100,000

In theory you could probably live somewhere else in between, but this one is likely best for a city dweller.

I'd probably say the Nature aspirations (except Outdoor Enthusiast) are the ones I complete the most since almost all my Sims start out Rags to Riches style. Next in line would be Painter Extraordinaire, Best Selling Author, Body Builder, Master Chef, Fabulously Wealthy, and Computer Whiz.

I've done quite a few aspirations, but never tried any of the Parenthood ones, yet. I just got the pack when Seasons came out. I don't have CL, so none of those either. I tried the Deviant ones, but never completed them. I don't like my Sims to be mean. lol

I haven't tried the Serial Romantic aspiration either, but I might do that with my current Sim. She's a Secret Agent living on her own so far and has a couple boyfriends she uses to fulfill the Romantic interactions task for her job. All my other Sims seem to meet 'the one' and stay faithful to them, settle down, etc., without ever playing the field first.

This same Sim currently has the Renaissance aspiration, but she's stuck from progressing at the moment because I want her to reach Level 10 in her current career first. This is only the second time I've ever tried that aspiration. The first time was with my Super Sim.

I haven't tried very many Popularity aspirations either. Most of my Sims don't have a lot of friends except for family. I really like the Nerd Brain aspiration, but I mostly only do that one if I have an Astronaut Sim.

You are right, and also "Live in an Apartment worth $100,000" at the end. I right clicked those with UI cheats so I forgot about them.

I don't really pay much attention anymore since we haven't had a ton of new ones or relevant ones since launch basically. I got bored of them long ago and only use them as a way of defining each sim's general aspirations in life. I don't try to fulfil the goals anymore and if they do, they do it by accident because of gameplay.
I wish the system would have gotten a proper revamp or some love but as it is right now, I just can't be bothered with it anymore.

Yeah it is easy to grow bored of them because you are constantly choosing the same ones over and over

I've finished every aspiration at least once since I did the Ultimate SIm Challenge last year.

However, the legacy that I have that is still currently going (Generation 35) is a painting family. So far I have completed the painting aspiration I think around 21 times already :D :D :D
