A habit is tagged good when it brings about growth, self-development and makes your life and health better, a good activity can become bad for someone when it affects them negatively and when they cannot do without it, it becomes a bad addiction, whereas, when a person seems not to be able to do without a certain activity or substance and the said activity or substance enhances the person's life in return, that can be seen as a positive or good addiction.
It is usually said that too much of everything is bad, when someone is too good, while this also can be tagged as to be bad, I believe that it can only be seen as bad only when it affects the person negatively, something can be too much and still good for a person, so long as it adds to oneβs life and does not subtract to it. For instance, a person who is good and puts others before himself may have behaviours that negatively affect them when they don't take care of themselves, take care of others, and forget themselves. When this behaviour makes one have a sense of purpose and social connection, to that person, the act of selflessness or putting others first can be seen as good. It is noble to put others first, but whenever we do so, we should try not to neglect ourselves in the process. A person who is not healthy, for instance, may not fend for another who is ill; this is what separates good addiction from a bad one.
A good addiction could be one where a person develops a hunger for new information, trying to always learn new things or develop new skills, looking for new information through studying, keeping the brain always active and engaged. A person who is addicted to watching educational and informative movies will also see their addiction as a positive or good addiction since it helps them learn and stay informed.
An activity in the end is a positive addiction when it makes one better than what they were, where there is a sense of self-development, mentally, professionally, socially or otherwise. While a bad addiction is one that only takes from you and does not give, and is a part of your destruction.
