Yaakov Avinu says these words, like I started in the beginning: Katonti mikol ha-chasadim u-mikol ha-emet. I am smaller than all the chesed (kindness) and all the truth, asher asita et avdecha (that You did for Your servant). Ki be-makli avarti et ha-Yarden ha-zeh. Because I crossed this river with my stick. What it means is that Yaakov Avinu, 20 years ago, had all the dreams in front of him and almost barely any accomplishments behind him.
He was old, he was single, he had no money, he had no prestige. He was a fugitive from his own father's house. And then what happened? Slowly but surely, he married one wife, and another wife, and her maid, and another maid, and had Reuven, Shimon, Levi, Yehudah, Yissachar, Zevulun, Dan, Naftali, Gad, Asher, Yosef, and Dina, and he's well! And then he starts making business deals with Lavan, and he's succeeding across the board. Everything you could have hoped happened! And he still feels katonti. He still feels, "I'm less than, I'm not enough." Success does not help the problem.
