Addenda: strong desires and personality traits can help you play your character such that they'll make choices that'd be inconvenient for them, just for a chance at attaining that desire. It's fun to have your characters screw up sometimes!

For example, having them, in the heat of the moment, pursue their desire for revenge against someone who wronged them, forgetting that said wrongdoer is important to someone your character loves. In a more cool-headed moment, they might not pursuit that revenge!

Alternatively, a character who's less hotblooded might choose to seek revenge in more subtle ways, so that said love won't notice.

That's another thing. People'll react differently depending on the situation. Do consider that. The other responses have some good advice too.
