What is he talking about? He isn't talking about a saying like "stubborn as a mule", is he?

He means that you should hire unbalanced workaholics, that meteoric success is more important than providing a good, sustainable life for yourself and your employees.
It's like saying "that person is a machine." They are able to sustain a high level of work output. Think of an ox tirelessly tilling a field.

I think nowadays he says 'relentlessly resourceful' instead.
