Every word you or someone else chooses to say or write shifts the meaning of a conversation. In this episode, Daniel Stih explores how he thinks through problems using The Meta Model from Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), a powerful framework for unpacking complex language. Complex statements hide more than you think. One word can change everything. Learn how to break it down, word by word, and see the truth underneath.

You’ll discover:

• How complex statements often hide assumptions, distortions, and generalizations
• The art of “Recovery Questions”—smart follow-up questions to clarify vague language
• Why breaking a statement down word by word can reveal new insights
• The exact questions from the Meta Model to use to dig beneath vague language
• How to transform fuzzy conversations into clear, actionable information
• Real-life examples showing how one word can change the entire meaning of a discussion

Whether you’re trying to solve a business problem, navigate personal relationships, or think more clearly, this episode will give you practical tools to see what’s truly underneath the words. Think of it as X-ray vision for language.

This week’s song is “It Is What It Is,” a laid-back reggae track with an origin story as unconventional as its groove.

Inspired by an episode of The Simpsons and written with placeholder lyrics — à la “Scrambled Eggs” (the original draft title of Yesterday by McCartney and Lennon) — this song found its soul outside the rules.

We recorded it without a click track. Despite Quincy Jones famously insisting a click is essential, the drummer said, “Bob Marley didn’t need one — neither do we.” We went for it. No click. Just car keys, island spirit, and a pocket you can’t fake. And the result? It came out perfect.

In this episode, I share the creative process, the philosophy of letting things flow, and why sometimes the best groove is the one that doesn’t follow the rules.

This episode is a call to awaken your mind, refine your logic, and engage with AI as a thinking partner—not a substitute. As artificial intelligence evolves, the temptation is to think less—offloading decisions, creativity, and problem-solving to machines. That’s a dangerous path. In this episode, I explore why it’s important to keep thinking more, not less. I share a perspective that compares each of us as individual microprocessor chips— unique, wired with a purpose, and vital to the larger system of human progress. Just like in a computer, the strength of the system relies on each chip doing its part. If we stop thinking critically, we risk dumbing down the technologies meant to serve us.
