How to use projecting in a sentence?

1. Seneca, Letters to Lucilius V:

   Fear keeps pace with hope. Nor does their so moving together surprise me; both belong to a mind in suspense, to a mind in a state of anxiety through looking into the future. Both are mainly due to projecting our thoughts far ahead of us instead of adapting ourselves to the present. Thus it is that foresight, the greatest blessing humanity has been given, is transformed into a curse.

2. Wash Westmoreland:

   We knew she'd be able to master the difficult transitions and projecting the high intelligence and going through the emotional rawness of the end, we knew she was the one.

3. Simon Gleave:

   It is very possible that Japan could have their best Games in terms of medals, we are projecting them only one medal below that, but with six months to go this could certainly change.

4. Michael McCaul:

   My fear is that President Biden is projecting weakness, not strength, and that is very dangerous in the international community.

5. El Paso in which O'Rourke:

   And to some degree, El Paso in which O'Rourke're performing when El Paso in which O'Rourke're running for office, right ? you're never fully, wholly, truly yourself, warts and all. You are on a stage and you're projecting and you're acting in a way that you want people to read and form their picture of you. No one can help that. ... We're all actors on that stage, and no one more so than perhaps someone running for president. But I couldn't go do that.
