Hello Clive.

Thank you very much for your response.. Please see another sentence:

It is good to be optimistic, but not good to be with high expectations, which may make you sad.

Please correct it.

Thanks once again & regards,

Hi,

It is good to be optimistic, but not good to be with high expectations, which may make you sad.

Please correct it. It's not wrong as written. But more common is

It is good to be optimistic, but not good to be with have high expectations, which may make you sad.



You might also have a look at the verb 'disappoint'.
