I don't want to ruin this meme, but he's saying a real thing in a confusing way. You have to think 10 moves ahead of your opponent and also the repercussions of each move at every step.

Zero points for saying it wrong, though.

“You miss every shot you take”

“The only thing we do not fear is fear itself”

“Interrupt your opponent when he is making a mistake”

There is a wonderful cartoon book by Tom Weller called "Minims". A minim is the opposite of a maxim. So the book is full of illustrations of wisdom like "The early worm gets eaten by the bird." and "You'll catch more flies with honey than you'd care to." The book's subtitle is "Man is the only animal that wears bow ties."

(Although, I have to admit, my husky sometimes wears bow ties and he looks a lot better in them than I do.)

No, he said a real thing in a completely factually wrong way, and that's assuming that this "entrepeneur" actually understood it correctly, which I doubt.

I mean, that's kind of the point - someone else wiser said the real thing, then Mr smarty-pants heard it, didn't understand it, but thought it sounded cool so began repeating what he thought he heard to people who also don't know any better, but like the way he says it so they give him their money to play with. Business/capitalism in a nutshell.
