Have an argument with yourself is probably the best advice i could give. Choose an initial point of view that answers the question at hand and include this view within your introduction along with any explanations of specific terms in the question. Then every point brought up in the body of the essay should show why YOUR point of view is right. Example: when including an opposing argument one might say: "However _____ says ____. Although this argument poses a threat to my point of view, I believe mine is a stronger stance to hold because. ". So here we see that even though you are posing a for/against argument in your essay, you are still in essence supporting your argument entirely. Always end each for/against comparison with an original thought/example to strengthen your essay and show some original thought. Aim for a minimum of 3 separate 'mini arguments'. End with a conclusion summarising your points and emphasising why you are right, irrespective of all the opposing arguments. Have an opinion!
