Do You Need To Change?

A couple of hunters hired an Alaskan bush pilot to drop them in a remote location, then return in seven days to pick them up. At the appointed time, the pilot arrived and loaded the hunters and their gear in the plane. “Wait a minute,” said the first hunter. “What about our moose?” “Sorry,” said the pilot. “We’re at maximum weight already.”

“But our pilot last year loaded our moose, and he had the same size plane as this one.” “Really?” asked the pilot, not wanting to be outdone. “Well, I guess we could give it a try.” With that he strapped a moose carcass on each pontoon. They sputtered to the end of the lake to get the longest possible takeoff. He shoved the throttle forward; they began to move, and finally, they lifted off the lake, just skimming the trees. But the pilot was right. They were seriously overloaded and crashed just minutes into the flight.

Both hunters were knocked unconscious but came to at about the same time. The first hunter looked around at the mess, moose meat and plane parts everywhere.   “Where are we?” he asked his partner.   “About 100 yards from where we crashed last year!”

Doing things the way we’ve always done them insures that we’ll continue to get the results we’ve always gotten.

“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;…” Ecclesiastes 3:1-2
