That simply isn't true (which doesn't mean you're lying) and I'm surprised that a bright guy like you would make such a statement!

lie • noun an intentionally false statement
AskOxford: lie<sup>2</sup>

not just incorrect but "Intentionally false"

If you believe something to be true then you are not telling a lie when you say so, even if your statement is not or cannot be proven.

You believe that one day you will be a Professor. You cannot prove it, but you aren't lying.

However, if I said that one day I'll be a Professor I would be lying, because I know that statement is intentionally false.
