Is it wrong to put a positive expectation on a prospect?

My Street Smart Wealth Academy Client, Kidada, from Nigeria asks -
Is it wrong to put a positive expectations on a prospect? Most times when they say no indirectly by avoiding me that's what causes my disappointments
There is no "right or wrong" - there are only learning opportunities. EVERYTHING we experience is an opportunity for growth and learning.
It can create major frustration to put an expectation on a prospect of them saying YES, to the product or opportunity, or any of "their" actions.
We can "make up stories" about other people - why they say no; they they ignore us, and so on. But, we don't REALLY know why, unless they tell us.
So, no expectations, and no assumptions.
And, no disappointments (for very long) about another's actions or inactions.
Set an expectation on YOU - what YOU will do, consistently.
How YOU will show up. How YOU will grow, learn and improve.
We only control ourselves. No one else. Be the best YOU that you can be, and the rest will fall into place.
Bless and release those who avoid you. It's more about them, than you. And, don't be afraid to say - hey, it's okay of you say no, this is not for me.
Give them permission and honor their decision and space, for now. Over time, you may be amazed at how many people will circle back around and be a YES, when they time is right for them!
