Question

How can I put these thoughts and ideas together into a thesis?

Answer 1

I have to right an essay about the American Dream. I kind of have ideas and thoughts but I'm having trouble putting them nicely together into one sentence.


This is what I think:

I agree that nowadays it's much harder to achieve the American Dream because of obstacles such as inequality, but even with such difficulties present, education can still lead to achieving the American Dream, at least for those willing to work hard and such.

Also, to me it seems as if times have just changed and achieving the american dream is just not as easy and the ways of doing so are different. We have new technology and advances for example, our times require people to be more knowledgeable, we need more human capital and such.


This are just thoughts on the top of my head, not my actual essay or so.

Answer 2

Other thoughts:

*Times have changed, the ways of achieving the American Dream have changed.
*It's not necessarily unfair, people just need to move up with times, or adapt to new ways.

Answer 3

This was my working thesis: "Even though economic inequality is an obstacle for many Americans in our current times, education remains and offers those willing and determined the pathway to achieve their American Dream." But I feel like it needs something more...

Answer 4

Hold on...

Answer 5

ok :)

Answer 6

Here is something that may be decent to start you off : The American Dream is not what it used to be,with advancements in technology,efficiency,and human capitalization,we (if not all of us) must work harder and dedicate our unlocked potential towards making a better economic drive,rather than awaiting such dream to come to us.

If you need help with a THESIS STATEMENT, then there are many ways to do so:

Step 1: Try to get straight to the point. The thesis statement tell what the entire essay would be about.

Step 2: Squeeze it to a sentence. A thesis is the end of of the short introductory paragraph. Try to summarize the entire essay into a single sentence.

Step 3: Filter. Do not spoil any special details. No details in the thesis statement.

Step 4: Fit in. Make sure this thesis statement fits in your introduction paragraph, and that the introduction paragraph fits in your essay.

Step 5: Shine it up. You can make it as fancy as a diamond, as long as it doesn't spoil anything.

How to do these:
Let's say I'm writing about the danger of eating too many hot dogs.

Step 1) Too many hot dogs are dangerous to eat. They can damage the body. If you eat more than 12 hotdogs in a month, it increases the chance of getting cancer.

Step 2) Too many hot dogs can damage the bloodstream, and, therefore more than 12 in a month are dangerous to eat.

Step 3) Too many hotdogs eaten in a month can be dangerous.

Step 4) *let's just say it does.*

Step 5) Eating a great amount of hot dog over the span of a month may be dangerou for your blood stream
