As I avoid the space at the end of the lines. I want the last word of each line to touch the edge of the minipage but not to exceed it. Each line has to stay as it is, one should not remove or include words, or change words between two lines. I can not use \ spaceskip to rearrange each line individually. The first word of each line should touch the right edge of the minipage just as it is in the image below. The distribution of the words should be agreeable in the end. Lines that have only one word are not a problem as long as the word remains in the text. I want to know a global solution, such as a style, or package, or command, etc.

Text sample

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fancybox,anyfontsize,geometry,setspace}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\paperwidth=15.0in
\paperheight=13.0in
\addtolength{\textwidth}{12.55in}
\addtolength{\textheight}{6.90in}
\begin{document}
\fbox{
\begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
    \begin{spacing}{9}  
\fontsize{40}{6}\selectfont

\spaceskip=1.78\fontdimen2\font plus 1.2\fontdimen3\font minus 1.2\fontdimen4\font 
Deep down, I know I do \\
great work! I literally \\
study every single day, \\
and I work on huge projects at work. I've been in \\
the field for over 15 years. I work with \\
and even challenge some of the \\
best developers.
\end{spacing}
\end{minipage}
} 
\end{document}

Hi @leandriis, here a code using \makebox[\linewidth][s]:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fancybox,anyfontsize,geometry,setspace}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\paperwidth=15.0in
\paperheight=13.0in
\addtolength{\textwidth}{12.55in}
\addtolength{\textheight}{6.90in}
\begin{document}
\fbox{
\begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
    \begin{spacing}{9}  
\fontsize{40}{6}\selectfont

\spaceskip=1.78\fontdimen2\font plus 1.2\fontdimen3\font minus 1.2\fontdimen4\font 
\makebox[\linewidth][s]{Deep down, I know I do} \\
\makebox[\linewidth][s]{great work! I literally} \\
\makebox[\linewidth][s]{study every single day,} \\
\makebox[\linewidth][s]{and I work on huge projects at work. I've been in} \\
\makebox[\linewidth][s]{the field for over 15 years. I work with} \\
\makebox[\linewidth][s]{and even challenge some of the} \\
\makebox[\linewidth][s]{best developers.}
\end{spacing}
\end{minipage}
} 
\end{document}

and the result

Don't work

I am not sure, but I think you are asking for

enter image description here

    This is using forced breaks as you seem to want and forces every line to be full width, but the spacing of course is not agreeable, but I could not understand your question if it was not asking for this. – David Carlisle Feb 24 '19 at 22:41
  • Hi @DavidCarlisle, Although the result has a very large spacing between words, this does not sound unpleasant, but depends on the width of the minipage. Your response was great. Thank you! Thank you all! – Yaacov NNNNM Feb 24 '19 at 22:59
