DS:
if you're running around, you may find a floating, slowly rotating symbol in the shape of a skillpoint (eg, cog for mechanical) they're usually bright colours. green, blue, yellow etc. go up to it and press a and you'll gain it.
PC:
If you want to gain a point for creativity, paint a picture, if muscle, buy a weight lifting machine. keep trying on whatever you buy and your sim should gain a point.
