Avoid writing in the first person. This means avoiding I, my, you, we, our, us, or this observer. Do not use phrases like, I think that, or in my opinion, or I do not agree that. Simply omit such phrases, and go ahead with your statement. That said, academic writing generally does not include opinions.
