Sure, so say so you have a requirement to add two numbers

You write a test that has two two inputs and the output Run the test and watch it fail, check that the output is what you expect so you know the test is working

At this point you have no implementation and you use this opportunity to confirm that the test will work, by checking it is failing how you expect. If you are pairing sometime I teach that you should call out what you expect, kinda like in American pool. Sometimes the test passed in this case, this is your opportunity to break the test and confirm it will fail (though this is often a sign you did too much work previously, and might need to check if you really are making the smallest possible change)

Do the minimum to correct the problem described by the failing test (you can follow the transformation priority premises here if you are familiar with it)

At this point you have only implemented the simplest possible code, this makes it really easy to spot if there is a problem with it because of some flaw in the test, and you have confirmed the it matches your test

What's more you can confirm all, and only behaviours described in the test are implemented

Look at the code and decide if you can simplify it, do any refactoring

Got to clean the kitchen because if we don't clean the kitchen we will have to clean the garage and we don't want that because it's a bigger job.

Why this works is that the code is developed in a TDD style forces you to move in smaller steps meaning bugs are shallower when they do occur. You aren't dealing with a 20 complex lines, you are dealing with a return const, or selection, or etc. The scope for the test being wrong is reduced and the amount of implementation is reduced, generally the tests end up more concise and smaller too and the interfaces are user friendly too because you didn't think how do I calculate this, you thought what would be a nice way to call this.

What's more it encourages an example driven approach that leads to developers thinking about the most sensible input data over and over again, and what that should output reducing the chance any one wrongly implemented test wouldn't be picked up by other examples.

TL;DR, the driven word is the key, a test that is illogical will never drive you to the working code
