Regardless of what gear I'm in, my heel isn't touching the floor while I'm in "shifting mode", whether I'm accelerating from a stop or driving in traffic. If I'm on the highway, my foot will rest to the left of the clutch, obviously on the floor and if I'm at a traffic light that'll be green soon, I may rest my heel on the floor temporarily. Once I'm ready to shift again, up goes my heel slightly as I get ready to shift.

I see that clarifies it. My heel is completely plant when i release the clutch so the clutch slides down my foot. i will need to practice using the whole leg because using the heel planted seems to have its disadvantages.
