Of course being verbose doesn't mean your writing is good. It's just that you need to deliberately choose when to be more verbose and when to give no description at all. It's all about the experience you want to craft. If you write about how mundane a character's life is, you can write out their day in detail and give your readers the experience of having such a life, that is if that was your goal. It all depends on the experience you want to craft and the story you want to tell.

To put my experience more simply, I did not realize how much of an art writing could be and how little rules there were when you write artistically/creatively.
