It's a saying about properly preparing before action. Measuring 10 times and cutting once is ideal because you are making sure the cut is correct. Measuring once and cutting 10 times is more work than necessary because you weren't prepared to make the cut. It's kind of like sketching before a drawing or drafting a paper before finalizing. You make many changes before completing the actual work. Similar to the saying that "Success is 90% preparation and 10% perspiration." Preping is almost always the majority of the work.
