Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, however, after searching for it on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly the same as yours that presented the text "NOAA’s Big Miracle Worker" as the text in question. If this is your case I hope the answer below can help you.
Answer and Explanation:
The text is an interview with Dave Withrow about the operation that allowed the rescue of three gray whales that were trapped in Barrow, Alaska in 1988. Withrow shows that he was the qualified professional to work in this operation because he had experience working with marine manifers, such as whales, because when he worked at NOAA at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center, his department was responsible for taking care of any matter related to whales. This can be seen in the first paragraph of the text, in the lines: “... anything whale-related, especially on the West Coast, comes through our office.”

Answer & Explanation:
This quote shows the meaning that if you were to take away a way of doing things, such as a habit then a person is lost. A good example of this would be a child has to take their medications in the morning and they've formed a habit of taking them at exactly eight in the morning. When you break the child's habit, they are lost, they might forget to take their medications all together which may cause confusion or chaos even. I agree with this statement because when you change something a person is so used to it can create a worse scenario, such as confusion, as stated above. It doesn't usually end very well at all. Someone's attitude can affect a situation because, for say, if a person has a bad attitude going into a conflict with another person it may create a worse situation for both people and may only cause more trouble while if someone has a good attitude and is being positive then the conflict may be resolved rather quickly.
