Training with a gut feeling?

Well

I've read about all sorts of road cycling training techniques and various sciences behind them. However, when i go out to ride i sometimes just go with the gut feeling and end up doing the same intervals or sometimes just straight up riding at a steady pace. I feel like if i do listen to what my body wants i end up using effective training methods while enjoying myself way more than if i had to force myself to do something.

Question is, am i sort of just fooling myself with this, and should i really stick to a schedule with specific activities each ride of the week?
