What types of aspirations would you like to see in The Sims 4 more?

Perhaps it is just my desire for a farming/ranching expansion (and my animal loving nature), but I do really want to see this section expanded.

Something for my active sims!

We have running, boxing, sparring, climbing, swimming, cycling. I might look for a CC-aspiration for Iron Man. I feel like a fun and challenging aspiration would be great for my guy-sims. In RL I know several who are very much into long distance running, races which combines cycling, running and swimming. There could be a timed challenge in which you had to do every activity perhaps?

I would really like to have a gruff military sims who does this on the side. They cannot all be gloomy aspiring artists painting sunsets. The bodybuilder-aspiration did not fit my sims so I have never done it, but I play loads of active sims.

Yeah a lot of people have been calling for better aspirations lately I would also like to have some lifeline wishes like in Sims 3 except I want to be able to do more than one

I don't get the appeal of lifetime wishes. It's just "reach level 10 of this career and your whole life is complete". Aspirations are already better because they are more complex - I want to be the best gardener, I want to be a good vampire, I want to be a Strangerville hero, these are the steps to achieve them.

A way to improve it would be to have separate rewards for each milestone to distinguish them, so that a level 2 bodybuilder can do more types of workouts, or a level 2 soulmate can do more interactions with their partner, and so on.

I also get what you're saying about the long-term aspirations not being as good in some ways but I'm not talking about replacing the short-term respirations I'm just talkin about adding some longer goes to for people that like that

Fitness only has one option as of now, and I could really use some more options for my athletically inclined sims.
Ideally I'd love some cross-pack aspirations, but I know that's unrealistic outside of modding.

@SilentKitty Oh I would love that! Tbh the bodybuilder aspiration barely is an aspiration, it's the easiest/quickest one to complete so it just feels like a quick side project they can get done to get the long-lived trait until they move on to their "real" aspiration.

I would really like more child aspirations I think those are really needed

I don't pay that much attention to aspirations but I'd want more career ones or more aspirations centered around a theme. I don't have the Eco pack yet but that's an example of ones I'd like.

In terms of general aspirations - fortune, family and love would make sense. I think some kind of pack related to managing (and losing) wealth would make sense.
