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

The people who talk about wanting change often dont usually talk about a stock market crash, they make it sound like all change is a good thing, even if the country was in good shape without change, and didn't need it. Usually they really want everyone else to put up with what they want done differently.

There's no good reason anybody needs to put up with your change.
