You might try telling positive things. I just won the lottery. I just got a great job, found a great partner, etc., etc.
And don't lie.

According to many spiritual paths, what you say is an "affirmation" that the Universe tries to fulfill. I don't exactly believe that altogether, but there seems to be some merit to it.

OK... Lie and say I am dead. If I die then my wife reserves every right to pursue you for mentally killing me. Agreed?

The truth is always a harder path to take.
But why?
You have pithy saying; "The truth shall set you free" etal.
Why? Why is the truth harder to say? Why it it easier to lie?
Honest questions. No snarkiness involved.

Think of it as an experiment. You said you tell a lie and it come's true, so let's test the theory. I'm more than willing to act as a test subject in the experiment in order to test the validity of the claim given. If true, then there would seem to be some weird mental powers unexplainable going on, if false then I haven't wasted my time. But like I said, if true and I should die, we have to agree that my wife reserves the right to pursue you for mentally killing me as your lie would be the causation of my death.
It appears from the cited examples that this feat works rather quickly, so I'll give a generous time frame of one week for my death to be realized by your lie.
