The idea
List the adjectives applied to the person. Note any repeated word or sentence opening. Identify the family the metaphors belong to. Then state the trait those three point at. Four steps, and the trait is arrived at rather than guessed.
In practice
Adjectives, repetitions, metaphor family.
Where people slip
Arrive at the trait; do not guess it.
