We challenge the need to be the hero of a good outcome and ask what success looks like when the goal is bigger than our name. Using Rabbeinu Bechaya on Mishlei and Parsha Naso, we learn how simcha becomes real when we celebrate God’s will being done, even through someone else.  
• the difference between wanting the yeshiva funded and wanting to fund it  
• defining success as the accomplishment rather than our accomplishment  
• how Rabbeinu Bechaya frames a parsha through a single guiding verse  
• why “simcha” is a specific joy tied to Hashem and wisdom  
• “asos mishpat” as joy in the phenomenon of justice  
• learning to be happy when a friend does the mitzvah better  
• the story that tests whether we can celebrate Torah we did not build  
• simcha as a mitzvah that completes avodah  
• why the Leviim sing and what it trains in us  
• the 30 to 50 window as a lesson in using strength well
