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.
not to brag, but in most cases, I am good at listening to the winds of change.
