Timeless Wisdom with Dennis Prager

Good Urges vs Bad Urges

June 16, 2026·32 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Dennis delves into the idea that our good intentions often lead to more harm than our bad desires. This concept is rooted in a Jewish concept that suggests we're born with two wills: a good one and a bad one. The good urge tells us to do what's right, while the bad urge encourages us to take shortcuts and prioritize our own interests.
