Realize that you did your best. It is not the end of the world.
Don't live in the past. Look forward to the future and just make a promise to yourself that you won't make the same mistake again. Remember that you are a valueable person in life and you don't have to feel sad.

Ok. So YOU feel sad when YOU think YOU disappointed someone. Does this someone have a say on this? Do you even try to find out how others feel about you and your actions or you are too busy feeling your own self-importance that there is no room to even consider asking questions or making amends?
You want to learn not to be so emotional? Take a good look around you…emotion is the last resort for people who jump into actions without even considering the consequences on themselves and others…so do more thinking before acting on an impulse. Think about the impact of your actions on others before you act…
Be impeccable with your word.
Don’t take anything personally.
Don’t make assumptions.
Always do your best.

It is not a matter of teaching your self but becoming more able to understand and accept self. All emotions are there for a reason - accept the reason and you can change. When you disappoint someone, you are trying to live to their expectations. Why not find out what your expectations are and live to them.
Also - why is this question in philosophy? It is a psychology or self help or personal development question.

no, being emotional is great
your goal is to be more positive and not less emotional
that is why you have to find positive in everything that you see or feel
for example, you are saying that you feel that you disappointed someone
but the positive side of it is that you realize it
and now you can expand the positive by understanding and saying to yourself that even though you are sad you have disappointed someone, you are glad that you know it, you have learnt the lesson and you will try not to do that next time
Good Luck :)

Develop a habit of putting things in perspective. Emotion is a initial response that is not always appropriate. A few seconds lag time is necessary to let your discretion be responsible for understanding what is going on. You can't lead with emotion and be competent in your actions.Other people will play on your emotions if they see you are vulnerable. Look at successful people and you will see that they develop thick skin.

Give yourself a chance. You don't need to meet others' expectations. If someone else is disappointed -- tough for them. You do your best. Be gracious and walk away from people who think you should live up to what they expect you to be. Be who you are for yourself, and God -- and if anyone else doesn't like it too bad for them.
