Well when it comes to Love, ive always used my heart but some reason everything else is a bit of both but I would say mainly mind.

I tend to go on instinct, which probably isn't the best way. So I say heart.

i think you go do your own project or go on the education forums if you actually need help

mostly with mind, but sometimes heart....but if it's love, then starts off with mind, but heart takes over eventually

I'd go with the mind isn't there a saying brains before beauty though looks and a strong kind heart are important factors to me though.

I tend to make decisions with my head, but in the paast I've missed out on romantic opporunities by doing so, so I took a chance recently and went with my heart, I don't regret it for a second becasue I'm now with a wonderful man. When it comes to careers, education etc I always follow my head, its considerably more logical, I guess it depends on the situation :confused:
Hope that helps!!

I always use my head - the heart makes short term decisions.

errm.
it really depends on the situation. eg when dealing with love matters, i feel i should listen to my heart but my mind always contradicts it.
i tend to use my mind more than my heart. my hearts filled with faith if anything, when i have feep conversations with people i never think, so my heart does all the talking.

metaphorically speaking obv.

almost all the time with my head, the heart is stupid.

The question is entirely meaningless because it makes a false assumption about the nature of consciousness; that there is a distinct separation between the emotional and rational elements of the mind.

Used to think with my heart, made some very very bad choices.
Now I rely on my head, make much much better choices.:biggrin:

yea, i guess it also depends on experience a person goes through.

but i guess most ppl make a decision based on a combination of heart and mind.

Isn't the heart and mind the same ?

I tend to use my heart but unfortunately most of time I make a mistake this way. When you're in love your mind is up there in the clouds and you heart becomes your mind ...in the end you feel sorry you didn't not put your mind back into place... and it hurts...

I'm in a bit of a problem over this at the moment. I like this guy but in my mind i no he isnt right for me as i have had problems with him before (but never whilst going out with him) my friends tell me he isnt right for me. But that still doesnt stop me liking him in my heart.
So in answer to your question i really dont no.
Suppose just do what feels right for you.

I think wen it comes to relationships u should always go wiv wot ur heart says. U cnt make decisions wiv ur head bcoz itz jus not right. Love isn't about bein tactical or doing wot u think is best, u jus follow ur heart n ur instincts. But, wen it comes 2 otha things like work then I think itz best 2 use ur heart & ur head 2 make the rite decisions. That way u do tha rite things but ony if u truly wan2.

In my mind, I should have opted to go fo runi aand go into university accomodation. But I've opted to follow my heart and am commuitng to uni from a flat I chose to share with my boyfriend.
My mind tells me that at this age, anything like this won't continue long term. My heart tells me I don't care, but that my mind can take over advising me if the situation should need altering.

Use my mind.

Bit of both really but i think my intuition, gut feeling and common sense help me with making my decisions. Not sure which category they fit in, so id say both mind and heart :smile:
