How does a government decide its rules?

You wake up one morning and think, "I should make a rule that everyone has to eat ice cream for breakfast." But here's the thing — you can't just announce that and have it become law. So how DO governments actually decide what rules everyone has to follow?
First, someone has to think there's a problem worth solving. Maybe traffic is dangerous, or a river is getting polluted, or workers aren't being paid fairly. A citizen, a group, or a lawmaker notices something that needs fixing. That's the spark — the "hey, we should do something about this" moment.
