Feeling versus Analysis in Compassion Meditation

I believe I have read within the Dalai Lama's works that there exists (at least) two kinds of compassion meditation: - Generating the four abodes within oneself, in a more concentrative and affective way (*metta bhavana*). - Analyzing compassion through logical discernment, having compassion as meditative object. I noticed my capacity to be compassionate with analysis seems very limited. The Dalai Lama suggests to focus on *feeling* after using reasons to generate compassion. **Is it possible that my mind functions more with feeling, and that analysis doesn't generate as much compassion in myself? What is the best course of action to generate compassion?**
