I think this is a good coping mechanism, though I disagree that you should always follow your heart. We are often not mature or knowledgeable enough, and our heart makes dumb, impulsive decisions which can hurt us and the ones we love. Our practical, rational side is there to temper that part of us.

Cultivate wisdom so that you can live a good life and die without regrets is better to me than following your heart.
