There is always a fine balance in all things. Think too much, you start calculating things that may never come to pass -- Rely on your heart you will most definitely become blinded by your desires. No one can help you completely because they cannot know what you are feeling. This is where experience and wisdom come into play. Be wise and trust yourself and your instincts because then the best will come out of you.
My Good friend, if you will live forever, then you can afford the luxury of this smoke shoveling exercise of which is better - the head or the heart. But if you realise no matter what you know or do your decisions will never be informed by aboslute knowledge and that even your most objective reasoning will be influenced by your sensibilities and that everything we do have its paradoxical effect, then you just act as you think at the moment of the action. We all live to question whatever we do, even if briefly. Once you realise how short the time to savor the pleasantries of life is - both in the sensual and most other senses - then you hurry to do whatever falls into your lap. Not that you should ignore clear warnings of danger; but that you should live every moment to the full. So when the time for regret comes, at least you could say to yourself, "I did what satisfied me most at that moment."

when you finish thinking with your head thoroughly then you use your heart to the max... that would definitely make a wonderful decision. ;-)
