Ever wonder how songs, brilliant designs, and groundbreaking solutions come to life? It’s not magic—it’s a process. In this episode of How I Think, Daniel Stih explains why understanding the process behind creative work matters more than knowing its final structure.

You’ll learn:

  • Why legends like Lennon and McCartney didn’t write hits in one sitting
  • The crucial difference between structure (ingredients, parts, frameworks) and a process (how and why)
  • Examples of key processes used by designers, engineers, and CEOs
  • Smart questions to ask yourself (and your team) to unlock new ideas
  • How to build your own repeatable process for solving problems or creating art

Daniel reveals how chefs, songwriters, and innovators all rely on hidden processes—and how you can discover yours. True genius isn’t just knowing the parts—it’s knowing how to bring them together.
