Funny... it seems to me a lot of people these days set themselves unrealistic expectations and hence set themselves up to fail from the outset. The result is disappointment, followed by a string of potty-mouthed expletives.
I am a true pessimist - I deliberately expect nothing or very little, and am pleasantly surprised when something works out, the result being I usually have something nice to say. If it fails completely, the worst I might mutter is "well what did you expect..."
This works magic at home, and at work.
