This reminds me of something one of my history professors said. He's never really disappointed in life because he sets his expectations extremely low. If something exceeds those expectations, he's happy. If they don't, well, he didn't expect much of it to begin with so nothing really changes. He said it kind of tongue-in-cheek but it still sticks with me over a decade later.
