The phrase "Small Holes Sink Ships" has its roots in the nautical world. In the early days of seafaring, ships were made of wood and were vulnerable to damage from rot, termites, and small leaks. If these small issues were not addressed promptly, they could lead to the ship sinking. Similarly, in our personal and professional lives, small issues can accumulate and lead to bigger problems if not addressed promptly. A small mistake or oversight can have a ripple effect and impact the overall success of a project or even an entire organization.
