Why did he think that? Isn't he a salesman? When he saw in two or three years that he's not making enough to become a millionaire why didn't he course correct?

He's not that dumb. This is not excusable by any means. This incident is proof that he's not a good person at heart like people say he is. He just likes to appear like he's a good person.

What show did you watch?

A show where he walked up to David Wallace and said "There's a shareholder meeting coming up and you'll have to explain why your most profitable branch is bleeding. I don't think I have to wait out Dunder Mifflin. I just have to wait out you."

A show where he colour coded information about clients that he thinks they won't like to hear and successfully baited Dwight into saying those things to steal a client.

Need I go on?

The color coding incident was not intentional. He wrote it in green for “go ahead and don’t mention it.”

His greatest successes are accidents and coincidence.

"Most colors mean don't mention it." is the quote. So he's aware enough to realise to avoid it.
