Thesis statement

I really sorry that I posted my thesis statements so late. There are they:

1. It is very fulfilling to help others because it makes you happy, it makes happy the person received a help from you, the person can help you in exchange.

2. Honesty is the most valuable trait of a friend's character because you can trust the honest person, you will be sure this friend would never lie to you, and you would know his/her true opinion about a situation.

3. Passing my degree has been my greatest achievment so far because it let me choose my path in life completely, gave me confidence in myself, was a really good challenge.

4. My studies is the one thing that give me real satisfaction because I like to receive new knowledge, I think if I try my best I would get my aim, study divert from problems.

5. Using a computer is probably one of the most important skills for a person nowadays because the Internat depends on computers, almost all firms are computerized, computers themselves have already become an important part of modern society.

6. Feeling competent about doing my job gives me confidence because I can be sure in results, nobody will value my job as incompetent, the work gives a feeling of pleasure when I know how to do it.

Thesis statements should be formulated using parallel structures. See if this is the case in #1,3, 4, 6.

Th st-t #1: points are too similar.
Th st-t #2: points 1, 2 and 3 are too similar. Can't see how to develop them separately.
Th st-t #4: what's the connection b/w getting satisfaction and receiving new knowledge? "achieve one's aims/goals" is better wording.

Th st-t #5: "internat"? I am not sure about the meaning of this point; points are too similar.
Th st-t #6: these points are very close too.
