Rules for Philosophy
Today my Professor put up nine rules for doing philosophy well. They're good food for thought even though I don't do many of these very well.
1. Identify the philosophical issues and focus on them
2. Read early (obviously this only applies to a philosophy class)
3. Be clear
4. Organize your thoughts and present them systematically
5. Keep an open mind
6. Follow your intuitions, but dig deeper
7. Respect the views of others
8. Be rigourous and logical
9. Talk with others
