That really would lag the world, depending on what you were doing.

world/New()
  ..()
  while(world)
    sleep(600)//Does an action every minute, would be better.
    //Do world actions here.

It really depends on what you need, can you be more specific?

its this proc:
mob/proc/check()
    var/fHP = (HP / MaxHP) * 100
    var/meterHP
    if (fHP < 100&&fHP > 89)
        meterHP = 90
    else if (fHP == 0)
        meterHP = 0
    else if (fHP == 100)
        meterHP = 100
    else if (fHP <= 10&&fHP != 0)
        meterHP = 110
    else if (fHP > 100)
        meterHP = 120
    else
        meterHP = (round(fHP) - 5)
        if (((meterHP / 5) % 2) == 1)
            meterHP += 1
        meterHP = round(meterHP,10)
    for(var/obj/HP/P in client.screen)
        P.icon_state = "power_[num2text(meterHP)]"
    //check for stat caps
    if (Strength > 100000000) //max 100 million
        Strength = 100000000
    if (MaxHP > 1000000000) //max 1 billion
        MaxHP = 1000000000
    if(HP < 0) HP = 0

A much easier thing to do, would just call that everytime the PL changes, you could make a proc to make it easier.
mob/proc/alter_powerlevel(var/n as number)
  src.powerlevel+=n//you can change it to positive to add, or minus to subtract.
  src.check()
