Chris Murphy Motivational Speaker
If the congressman thing doesn’t work out (though I think it will), Chris Murphy could certainly inspire a few people to try proving the conventional wisdom wrong.
In his victory speech Murphy told supporters, “For the rest of your lives, do not ever, ever, let anyone tell you ever again that a thing cannot be done.” He reiterated that message during his first week in Washington attending meetings, holding press conferences, picking his office and adjusting to the responsibility he has undertaken.
“I hope that our election was a signal to people in Connecticut and throughout the country that there are no obstacles too great when the stakes are high,” Murphy said.
