How to make life Easier 

Life can get busy and it is not always our making. There are so many factors that comes in to play. Work , family , friends , health related issues ,financial issues and things to do so on .

When I was think to write about this post , I asked myself some questions ..

So I made a list of things which I have done which make my life so simple and easier .

Different ways to Make Life easier

So here are some ideas that may be also help or make your life simple and easier .So check out this and find what ways works for you.

1. Live the life based on your standard ,Not the expectations of the peoples.

The biggest problem is that we are making our life more and more difficult. What peoples will think of us what people will say about us .

Don't think and don't look others peoples what they think about you .Just live the life based on your needs , standards , not the expectations of the peoples . Don't try to fulfill the expectations of others .

For Example , You have high paying job and peoples expect you to have a big Car and own big properties but this all is useless for you and you don't want those such things. Other peoples has always something to say , So it is pointless to satisfy them.

2. Live Simply by avoiding Comparisons .

According to me this is a another reasons from this you make your life bit complicated why you can't live simply is that you keep comparing your life with others life.

By removal of this you can make life easier and simple.

For example,  You see others peoples travelling  a lot so that the desire to roam inside you also awakens even when actually  you are not interested  in it. 

You see other peoples eating in high pricey hotels and restaurants then you did the same thing while actually you want to eat home cooked meal. 

Avoid comparing yourself with others form this you can make your life bit easier.

3. Limit the time on Browsing the Internet , Social Media.

Now a days most of the peoples spending their time on browsing the internet and social media like Facebook , Twitter ,Instagram etc. Children spend their maximum times by playing online games and forget to play in natural environment .

You get unsatisfied with your life and you can't live simply. Stay connected and updated with internet and social media but don't  let them steal you from the real world.

4. Simplify Your Finance .

Money is a necessary and managing it wisely is always a good thing. But some of us ,the management of money is so difficult due to this we make our life stressful.

Make it easier :

• Create a monthly budget to keep on top of your monthly income
• Shop wisely 
• Make a plan to deal with any debt.

5. Appreciate the simple things .

When was the last time you looked up the tree and appreciated the shade they give you , not to mention the oxygen they provide for free ? 

When was the last time you felt the rain on your skins and appreciated the coolness it gives .All those are free appreciated them.

6. Define Your Priorities .

Have you ever recognized the true priorities of your daily life . What is important for you and not. Firstly find those important priorities .

A new car , A bike and a Big Home ? Will this make your kids and your family happy ? 

Take a moment and identify you true priorities in your life and try to appreciate the good values of the simpler things in life . 

Take a notebook and note down the peoples , things, places, activities and experiences that means the most to you.

7. Take Regular Exercise. 

Taking regular exercise daily is an important way of keeping your body healthy and strong mind. Just a daily walk in fresh air and some gentle stretches are fine. 

Other factors that also makes your Life easier and simple :

Food Spoilage And Its Preservations

Introduction : Food spoilage is any undesirable change in appearance , smell and taste of food that makes it unacceptable to consume.

Spoiled food is not necessarily unsafe to eat but it is generally regarded as unpotable and will not be purchased or consumed. Food spoilage renders economic loss to producers, distributors and consumers in the form of reduced quality and quantity as well as high prices.

    

Since food are organic material , they provide nutrients for the growth of a wide variety of heterotrophic micro organism .

The physical and chemical characteristics of food determine its degree of susceptibility to microbial activity.

Causes of Food Spoilage :  

• Condition of Raw products
• Micro organisms : Bacteria, Fungi, Protozoans
• Enzymatic Activities
• Rough Handling 

Food Preservations

Food is very valuable . Preserving food can help to avoid wasting of food. Food Preservation is the process in which food is stored by special methods. Cooked or uncooked food can be preserved in different ways to be used later. Some methods of food preservation are:

• Freezing
• Boiling 
• Salting
• Sweetening
• Dehydration 
• Canning

Freezing:

              Food stored in a refrigerator remains fresh for some days. Bacteria do not grow easily in cool places . We can preserve some food items like milk, Fruits , Vegetables and cooked food by keeping them in refrigerator.

Boiling: 

                 By this method, we can preserve food for a short period of time. Bacteria in milk are killed by pasteurization  i.e the process in which milk boiled for sometimes and then cooling it quickly .

Salting:

             We can add salts in some food items like fish and pickles. 

Sweetening: 

                Excess amount of sugar in food also act as preservative. We store food for long time in the form of gems and murabbas by adding sugar in them.

Dehydration:

                        In this method some food items dried in the sun to avoid them from growing bacteria . Some food items likes raw mangoes , fishes , potato chips etc. are preserved by this method.

Canning: 

                                   In this method air is removed from food and put in airtight Cans so bacteria do not grow in them.

Conclusion : At the last we can concluded that food is valuable and must be preservative . To ensure safety of food products , quality control, assurance through routine microbiological examination of food products for pathogens and food organisms , confirmation of proper pasteurization  and checking of leakages in cans are required.
