In my short time in playing Sims 4, I've completed my fair share of aspirations, but there are a few aspirations I've never completed yet simply because it was a bit tough to reach. What are the toughest aspirations you think are hardest to complete? Yes, this includes all aspirations included apart from basegame as well.
I think in my experience, the toughest aspiration I've found hardest to complete is Party Animal, simply because I can't seem to get Gold on some of the social events because I'm most likely missing something critical to reach it.

A Sim needs to eat three plates of Grilled Cheese in a row in order to unlock this Aspiration.
Completing the Aspiration
Level 1
Talk about Grilled Cheese with 3 different Sims
Eat 10 Grilled Cheese

Prepare 3 group servings of Grilled Cheese
Talk about Grilled Cheese with 5 different Sims

You need to build the rocket to eat grilled cheese in space and somebody has to die if you want to talk to the grim reaper.
I think overall, Successful Lineage is probably going to be the most challenging to do, especially for someone playing with aging on.
Party Animal isn't really too hard, but it is tedious to throw all those social events.
Friend of the Animals is extremely annoying if you aren't doing it casually.

I'm going to mention a kid one: Social Butterfly. It takes forEVER to make a BFF, it seems, plus the social skill seems to be the hardest to raise. The other kid aspirations have been fine.
The very first Sims 4 couple I created had the same aspiration as each other. The male Sim died before completing it, but I managed to do it with the female Sim.

you can delete them afterwards. To be honest most of the time when I'm doing this aspiration I just enable moveobjects and stack all the necessary columns and windows on top of each other, then delete em'.

Still, could be useful in some legacies or challenges.

I found collector really hard until Seasons. Now it's pretty easy to complete the decorative egg collection, so long as you place lots of plants on the lot that you can hunt for eggs in.
and it really depends on the sim/household/playstyle what's the hardest. i've got one household that has finished every aspiration in the game and, with them the two i considered hardest were the mixology one and the comedian one. just because those two lock a sim in a specific path of a specific career. when the game originally came out, all the aspirations were really grindy, but i don't recall any of them actually locking sims to careers at all
yesterday's patch made the fishing one easier too, which is great. until yesterday only the base game fish counted for 'catch 20 different types of fish'
the real grind for me, though, was the jungle explorer aspiration, just because of the last step (open 3 rare chests, activate relic 5 times, find 5 treasures). i did this on a 6 sim household. with every sim trying for the aspiration. it...took a while
i do have some 'cheaty' things built into my game to make certain aspirations easier for sims that are after them, though. like a museum that has two rockets in it. one is prebuilt (by one of my sims, of course) and makes things nice for space exploration and working out, woohooing, or eating grilled cheese in space (just visit the museum and use their rocket!). the other one is a pile of parts specifically to be built into a rocket by sims on the 'nerd brain' ambition (sell it off and buy a new one once it's built). and a six sim household of 'vampire enthusiasts'. they're all crazy about vampirism and want to become vampires. five are normal humans, one is an erratic alien. the alien has max vampire lore, so knows how to make the vampirism cure. the idea is your vampire working on the 'vampire family' aspiration turns the five humans into their offspring, then once they finish the aspiration, swap over to the household, the alien cures everyone else, then they wait for the next vampire to decide to work on that aspiration
That's what I really dislike about some of these rewards.
Many of them give you some benefit to do what you have been doing the entire time to achieve the goals.
By that time, you don't really care to do the activities anymore.
If you have City Living, the poster collection is really easy to complete. I've currently got a semi-legacy that's trying to complete all the collections -- I'm now three frogs away from finishing them (have completed posters, snow globes, geodes and gardening).
For me the hardest are the Deviance aspirations only because I don't really like playing Sims who are Mean or even overly mischievous. Since my secondary goal for the semi-legacy is to finish all the careers (hoth tracks) I'll have to have a few deviant Sims somewhere in the family tree.

Right now is easy to complete because Holidays counts as gold events if you complete all the traditions, at least until they notice it because I'm not sure this is by design
All my creations are CC free.
You can form a group with some of the sims at the party, and then use the "dance together" interaction for that one.
I kinda figured as much. I just often don't have a use for this aspiration either. Suppose I should try to incorporate it into my gameplay more. Thanks for the tip.

The children ones are difficult if you never leave your home lot, which can be tough to do if your household has multiple children. I usually make my sims' weekends about achieving those childhood aspirations if I can. It takes time, but I've had sims children complete all four. And I also agree with you that fortune aspirations are difficult, unless you're okay with your sim doing nothing but working and having hobbies that make them money.

An easy way to keep track of the drawings is to have the child put them in their inventory, just open the stack to see which drawings have been completed.
Me too. I can't make parties work, so I go out of my way to not have them. This is one aspiration I'll never achieve.
I think I just came to the realization that I find sims to be far less petty that people are irl....
