Its a saying from the USA marines. It means that when things get tough [ ie as in a battle or struggle] then the determined and strong willed [ tough, resilient characters] get going ie apply themselves to the challenge , generally meant to be the fight for life.
Hope this is clear ?
I personally think its a great saying, simple and honest.

Thanks for the clarification @Pasha.

It seems I was on the right lines with the intended message from the saying. I understand it so much better after your clear explanation.
