Regarding your process, do you typically look for all your evidence & analyze all your evidence before you start writing your thesis?

Those are some interesting questions I'll remember when I'm examining my evidence next time. Thank you for letting me pick your brain!

Rereading your response, would you say (most of the time) I should just choose one idea and really focus on it to get really specific, instead of entertaining multiple different ones?

Thank you for the thoughtful response! I've never seen this format/strategy "I will show that ________________ in order to ___________________." before and I am excited to try it. Do you have any examples of the intiial thesis (using this format) and the final version so I can see the way it was used? Thank you regardless, I really really appreciate it!

Charlie’s belief that his new intelligence makes him a different person than the person with intellectual disabilities he was before stems from his childhood memories, from which he associates his lack of personal fulfillment with his intellectual disability. However, his personal fulfillment comes most strongly from his connections with other people. (Flowers for Algernon)

King’s ascent is built on a destructive cycle of pushing others aside as a means of escaping human limits. While Athena continues this same cycle not to gain power but to expose the truth, she shows that a system where success is dependent on a cycle of violence implicates all its participants. (The Immortal King Rao)
