You need to pick out a single important point from each section of your text and to state that as your thesis.
Your thesis statement should not only provide your reader with information about the topic of your paper, but it should also act as a guide for your writing and help keep your argument focused.
For Eg.
Thesis: The American Dream is a myth. Argument: There is no such thing as the American Dream. The term is a propaganda tool used by the government to manipulate the public. The American Dream is a myth because it does not exist in reality.

- Show the main point of your paper in the statement, but avoid phrases like “The main point of my paper is…” or “The main idea of my paper is …”
