Simplified Meaning:

When things are going really wrong, it might actually be better to take big risks. Imagine you're on a ship that is sinking. If you stay calm and keep doing small things, the ship might still go down. But if you act fast and try something drastic, like using a lifeboat or putting on a life jacket, you might save yourself and others. This idea is that in normal times, making small, careful moves can be enough. But in a big emergency, doing something brave and taking a big step can be the best way to fix the problem. For example, during a financial crisis, a company might choose to launch a new product or enter a new market. This seems risky, but it might be the only way to survive and even thrive later on. So, when life gets tough, sometimes being bold and making big decisions can actually be the safer path. Instead of getting stuck trying to fix every small detail, you take strong actions and have a better chance to turn things around.
