People who have a constant tendency to this state focus on their actions and environment. Their open mind and heart serve as instant stimulus they have to respond to. They concentrate in the end product, delivering and solving the problem; and may not enjoy the methodology or contemplation as much. They fight for the spotlight. Their best scenario is having shoes to fill, bacon to deliver, messages to convey, or products to show. They are susceptible to the social moment, opinion or demand; so they would find it hard to avoid social or peer habits and pressure.

People that are strongly heroical feel a need to be needed. They are not interested in becoming a mastermind, but a key player. They like physical training and work, but prefer activities that involve others. They are good at following plans, but dislike being submissive. They can be impatient for abstracted and regulated activities, like philosophy, science, spirituality or relaxation. They avoid wasting time and their idea of not wasting it is doing necessary chores; so, they always look for the next demand. They are inquisitive and emotionally open, and use these abilities for outreach. Rather than altruism or emotional support they concentrate on connection and empathy. They may tend to rely on habits and customs to act upon. They could overlook the objective for the excitement at times.
