Plowing hard hearts

In Matthew 13, when Jesus explains the parable of the sower, He also quotes Isaiah 6, explaining why he teaches in parables and in the Isaiah passage, hardness of heart as a phrase is used to describe people who are unable to receive teaching or be fruitful.
So my question is, how do we get our hearts plowed so that we are receptive to the Word and become fruitful? Do we do it or does God or do life's circumstances that come our way? Why are some people hard hearted while others are soft? Why are some people receptive and others are not?
