please explain the only way to avoid bad habits is to make it a point to avoid them.

Question and answer

Good habits are usually developed through conscious effort on our part. Once we form a habit, it takes over and forms us. The sum total of our habits solidify into our character, so they can be our best friends or our worst bosses. [ Ben Franklin put it nicely when he wrote, “Your net worth to the world is usually determined by what remains after your bad habits are subtracted from your good ones.” He also told us that, “It is easier to prevent bad habits than to break them.” Do you want to achieve success and avoid failure? Success and failure are simply habits, and the good news is that

good habits are just as difficult to break as bad ones. ]

Good habits are usually formed intentionally through consistent practice, discipline, and positive reinforcement, while bad habits often develop unintentionally because of convenience, lack of self-control, or repeated negative behaviors.
