Building a "world class" character creator in The Sims rival Life by You
Humble explains how one of Tectonic's designers made a 'tidy' trait. After creating the category, they rifled through a bunch of in-game interactions and tagged them so that, when undertaken by a 'tidy' agent, they would feel more fulfilled or increase a skill. Conversely, that means when a 'lazy' agent takes that same action, they might feel miserable. "All of a sudden, we've now got gameplay for a whole bunch of characters and players, who maybe didn't realize those actions would have some kind of impact," continues Humble, noting that modders will be able to do exactly the same thing.

I think I will get a kick out of doing that, plus creating other things to support it even further.
