Why Good Life Motors Embraces a Turtle as Our Logo

11/18/2024

At Good Life Motors, we proudly use a turtle as our logo, symbolizing our commitment to the principle that “slow and steady wins the race.” Inspired by Aesop’s timeless fable The Tortoise and the Hare, we believe this approach reflects our dedication to offering patient, thorough, and reliable service to every customer who walks through our doors.

The Classic Tale: The Tortoise and the Hare

The story of The Tortoise and the Hare is a well-known fable that holds a valuable lesson. In this tale, a boastful Hare constantly mocks the Tortoise for his slow pace. Tired of the Hare’s arrogance, the Tortoise challenges him to a race. The Hare, brimming with overconfidence, races ahead, leaving the Tortoise far behind. But in his haste and pride, the Hare takes a nap mid-race, assuming he has plenty of time to still win. Meanwhile, the Tortoise keeps moving forward slowly and steadily, without losing focus or stopping. By the time the Hare wakes up, it’s too late—the Tortoise has already crossed the finish line, proving that persistence and determination can triumph over natural advantages.

The moral of this story is that consistent effort and a steady pace can lead to success, which resonates deeply with us at GLM. We see ourselves as the Tortoise—unassuming yet determined, focused on delivering quality vehicles and service with patience and attention to detail.
