No, you are not being realistic, you are being pessimistic. The difference of keeping low expectations vs expect the worst expectations.

I understand that what you mean to say is “prepare for the worst”. That is a very cautious strategy, but it is not a realistic strategy. In reality you prepare for both the expected god things as well as the expected bad things. A pessimist would say “prepare for the worst, and the worst means absolutely nothing good will happen”
