• The purpose of this paper is to reconsider an appropiate Metaphor Identification Procedure (MIP) for the 'Mental Distance' analysis in business speeches. It is required of any research methodology in critical metaphor analysis that we establish the criteria for identifying the metaphorical and the literal. The problem of establishing a 'universal' MIP is rooted in the complex pgramatic linguistic roles of metaphors in discourse. In order to reexamine the basic steps in the MIP for the mental distance analysis, this paper demonstrates the metaphor identification process, using an actual business speech. The demonstration emphasizes the importance of simplicity and experienced intuitions in the identification process. This is important for not only establishing a more objective MIP for the mental distance analysis, but also for making it easier for researchers to replicate the very first process in the metaphor research, applying the mental distance concept.
