250 words- changes I made to the rough draft

Changes, additions and subtractions are what I did to my rough draft. Sounds like a math problem, but it’s not. My rough draft was very simple and not very good. To fix it up, I added many examples that support my summaries. The summaries themselves of my rough draft were not very good, so I had to fix those up too. I added more important information in each paragraph and made sure that the main points of my articles were pointed out. I made a change in the thesis sentence of my introduction. The reason for this was because I did not feel comfortable with how the sentence was written. I changed it from “In the three articles I picked out, the thing they all have in common is that they give us strategies on how to operate a business” to “The three articles I picked out will provide us with a few strategies to operate a flourishing business.” This way, the thesis better points out what I will include in my paper. Also, my rough draft did not include a conclusion. I wasn’t sure what I should write for my conclusion exactly to that is why I left it out. In my final draft, I added a well written and thought out conclusion that wraps up and summarizes the thesis of my paper. In all, I believe that the changes I made to my rough draft were essential in turning this paper from garbage to gold.
