Want to increase your lifespan? One of the best ways to increase your overall life expectancy is to lower your resting heart rate (RHR).
A high resting heart rate can lead to conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, and more.
Here are 5 ways to decrease your RHR 👇
1. High-Intensity Exercise
Every time you work out, you are training your heart to be stronger and more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body.
So when you’re in rest mode, your heart is more easily able to maintain a normal heart rate.
2. Get More Sleep
Sleep deprivation is associated with increased heart rate, an increase in blood pressure and higher levels of certain chemicals linked with inflammation, which can put extra strain on your heart.
Regular poor sleep can reduce ones overall life expectancy.
.@paulg is one of the greatest investors in the history of Silicon Valley. He has many great essays, one of which is called ‘13 sentences’.
If PG could tell startup founders anything, here is what he would say:
1/ Pick good cofounders
“Cofounders are for a startup what location is for real estate. You can change anything about a house except where it is.
In a startup you can change your idea easily, but changing your cofounders is hard.”
2/ Launch fast
“The reason to launch fast is not so much that it's critical to get your product to market early, but that you haven't really started working on it till you've launched.
Launching teaches you what you should have been building."
10 suggestions from @elonmusk about how to build a great company:
1/ Focus on the product vs. metrics
"If you're entering anything where there's an existing marketplace, against large, entrenched competitors, then your product or service needs to be much better than theirs...
...It can't be a little bit better, because then you put yourself in the shoes of the consumer...you're always going to buy the trusted brand unless there's a big difference."
