listening to the winds of change

(lyrics from the song "wind of change" by The Scorpions) :

a phrase meaning: to be clever enough to (correctly) detect and/or predict patterns of future social change in one's society, and adapt to said patterns before most other people around you.
during the 2016 presidential election campaign most higher ups in the democratic party didnt start listening to the winds of change until it was too late, but instead focused on perpetuating obama's legacy; no wonder they lost the election.

Change

If someone has reached the age of 35, or 50, or 90, and hasn't changed, they don't have to change. It's never too late to remain yourself without changing anything.
If someone has reached an age of 35, or 50, or 90, and they like who they are, they don't have to listen when somebody says they need to change, or that it's never too late to change, especially when it's coming from somebody who has no answers they don't.

Long Changed

Antonym of short-changing. When you get more than you bargained for, and not necessarily in a good way.
When you think you're done with all your reps, but then your trainer says, "Just FIVE more!" You have been long changed.

School/team name change

People who go to a high school have about as much interest in the name of the school as they have in the subjects being taught there. Their main interest is getting it over with and graduating. People who play on a sports team have more interest in making money than they do in what the name of the team they play on is.
The people involved in a school/team name change never held the original name sacred, and won't hold the next one sacred either. For 88 years, it never bothered anybody that the Washington Redskins were the Redskins, the name never really raised an eyebrow. Nobody paid the name much attention, then somebody whines about it and they have to make it politically correct so it no longer offends anybody (even though it never seemed to once in 88 years). They can even pick more neutral colors on their jerseys, how would their fans like a team with neutral colors and a lifeless name to go with it? It would be like playing a team called the neutered Bulldogs dressed in tiny pajamas versus the toxic, rabid, drug-fed junkyard Bulldogs.
