Simplified Meaning:
If you don't have any expectations, then you won't feel let down. Imagine you're planning to go to a party. If you don't expect to have the best time ever, then you won't be upset if it's not that fun. Basically, by not hoping for too much, you protect yourself from feeling sad when things don't turn out as you wanted. In life, when you don't set your hopes too high, you are more likely to stay happy and content with whatever happens. This idea can help you avoid feeling disappointed and help you appreciate what comes your way more easily.
