It's not circular. Look at this example:

Premise 1: In order to get to the store, John has to drive his car.
Premise 2: John needs to get to the store.
Conclusion: John has to drive his car.

That's not circular. If you think so, I don't know what I'm supposed to do.
That's not an example of the statement.

THAT would be an example of "IF I think, I am."

An example of "I think, therefor I am" would look like this.

Assumption of Premise 1: I exist
Premise 1: I think
Conclusion: I exist


Powerful.. magical.. e-e-e-eevil..
