Unfortunately, naturalness "reason" the heart is often knocked for self-preservation need. Because if I leave my heart pave the way, risk to remain without it: mellow:, or without the "pillars" that support the resistance, especially in love. Then, I create my little fortress, beyond which no one ... I prefer it too passes. The disadvantage of being female is that motivations are always in feelings, while the world we live in surface forces.
But beyond all these tests the strength to keep my reasoning where should I feel free of any barriers, I will always keep as they are, will always be myself in the privacy of my small universe.
I prefer to leave the heart to reason, when realism needs feelings ...

I think you should listen to both. If one is speaking to you louder than the other, pay close attention. There is probably a good reason for it. I also think there are certain instances where you should listen to your mind over your heart and vice versa. It depends on the situation. If it's more personal, tend to listen more to your heart. If it's more business or impersonal, listen more to your mind.

It depends on the occasion. There are some occasion when one has to listen to his mind and there are some occasion when one has to listen to his heart.
It also depend upon person to person, some people only listen to their mind and some only listen to their heart.
I myself listen to my mind on some occasion when some business related decision is to be taken i always listen to my mind.
When some decision related to my relative and friends is to be taken, i always listen to my heart.

I believe the hear is the best thing to listen to when it comes to deciding on a situation. If you go logical you won't enjoy whichever thing you pick because it won't be something you really want, it would only be something that you thought logical to do. Where as going with the heart you enjoy every moment of whatever you pick you never regret it.
