Hey guys, I'm working on an article that will be embedded in the app I'm creating. I'd like to get some opinions on a particular section. It's heavily influenced by MJ's books to the point of being borderline plagiarism.

My questions are:
  • would you consider this plagiarism - please don't sue me MJ :)
  • should I just leave this section out since I am currently still in a job and have not yet accomplished these goals? Mentally I believe that I'm already free and it's just a matter of following the process now but it's still a work in progress. I was thinking the next paragraph should explain my current situation and mindset but that seems a bit lame.
Here's the section in question:
Change your perception, change your reality
What would you be doing if money wasn’t a concern? Do you want to retire wealthy? How can you make this your reality? Start by changing your perception of money and investing. Think of every dollar you invest as a fighter in your freedom army, each one of these fighters multiplying itself over time. Once your army is large enough to produce income greater than your expenses you win the war. You’re free to choose what you do every day. No more selling your soul to a job you hate. No more Sunday evening dread in anticipation of the week to come. No more pretending to give a shit when your boss tells you about this week’s “top priority”.
