Can't organize my thoughts.

I think I'm going to have another breakdown.

philosophy is frustrating.

Answer 1

Set a timer for 15 minutes. In that time draft your topic sentence. That is the hardest thing, and the most important for the organization of your paper. Then make yourself a cup of tea, and take a break.
Set the timer again for 15 minutes. the concept is tell them what you are going to say, say it, and tell them what you said. that way, as long as you have the concept in your head, you can keep going.
first paragraph, topic, (tell them what you are going to say)
next 5 paragraphs, each on starts with a supporting statement to your topic, then explain it (say it)
then the conclusion, (tell them what you said).
Then save your paper, and go to bed.
tomorrow, you can spell check, read the paper, and edit it. you will be surprised at how much you can get done 15 minutes at a time.
(No timer, do a search for pizza timer, down load to your computer.)

Answer 2

When ever I get bogged with a paper and cant seem to collect my thoughts I revert to creating a outline...the outline will help me set my thoughts in motion again...and the rest flows out like a critically aclaimed novel!
Here's an outline

Well I wonder what kind of essay it is?
Here is a good outline to follow!
Introduction:
Opening: 9 ways to grab readers attention:
Quote, Rhetorical Question, Anecdote, Personal Opinion, Definition, Straight Forward, Introduction of Poem
Thesis
Writing Your Thesis Statement:
State the name of the poem and/or writer or subject
What is the theme(s) or factors or your subject.
State Purpose of Paper:
How will you explain your analysis

Transitional Sentence:

Body Paragraphs:
Opening Line: First factor or thesis point
How does your factor relate to the theme or overall subject
Your Opinons
Support for your opinons
Sources opinons
Support for their opinions...use a quote or somethin
Sum it all up
End with a transitional sentence

Conclusion:
Sum it all Up...repeat the intro...end with a cliff hanger like one of the attention getters!

Good luck--email me if you need help!

Answer 3

The entire purpose of philosophy is using your brain. No one can tell you what's inside your brain. Everyone has their own personal philposophy. Mine is "Do no harm....help those you can."
