What does it mean to follow your heart?

Answer by  diane23 (1167)

It means to go with what your feelings and instincts are telling you, which might not necessarily be the same as what logic dictates or what others are advising you to do. Sometimes it might be how you find what will truly make you happy, even if it's not the easiest path in life.

You don't rely on what your brain is telling you, ie "What you SHOULD be doing in a situation", but rather trust your instincts and feelings.

Follow your heart means you should simply listen to what your heart has to say as opposed to doing the logical thing. This phrase is most common in things that have to do with love.
