The heart knows things that the head does not know. Rav Nahman pointed this out in the Le.M where he says what the heart says is the very word of God. [He brings a verse that shows this but I forget the verse.] I point this out because in my own case, my head has often deceived me about many important things that my heart knew much better and was screaming at me not to listen to my own ideas. [Rav Nachman says going after one's חכמות wisdoms is a very negative thing.]
