Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life.
" The heart should be guarded for out of it (a wellspring) come one's actions (cf. Luke 6:45). Here the word "heart" means more than mental capacity; it also encompasses one's values (cf Matt. 6:21)."
~The Bible Knowledge Commentary

Jessica had time to do the word studies, whereas I, with my sick baby and sick self, did not. I don't know her, but found her and her most excellent post, when I googled this verse. Isn't the internet grand?
