I went thru BUDs with class 249 in the winter of 2003. I got rolled Wed AM of HellWeek and quit afterwards I was so pissed. I was rolled for a major leg issue and was later diagnosed with a stress fracture among other issues and med discharged. I was in San Diego on this rainy day in 2004 you speak of, suffering. BAD. When I came home I got into the drug game, selling and using crystal meth. It stole my 20's. I went thru 5 jobs, wrecked several cars and got 2 chicks pregnant. I completely bottomed out on life. I hit reset at age 30, when thru a year long recovery program, went back to school on my GI Bill and became a Nurse. Got a job in the emergency room and started my own business. Been sober almost 10 years. These videos really resonate with me. Starting back at the bottom has been a major them in my life but you're right. It's a chance to reinvent yourself.
Thank you for sharing and bein here brotha🤙🏼
Wednesday of hellweek is extremely impressive.
I found myself getting unexpectedly discharged on processing my day-4 in bootcamp for “fraudulent enlistment” as a direct result of doing what my recruiter said when he told me “just say no about that part” on one of the boxes on my medical questionnaire while I was sitting across from him at his desk filling it out.
22 days of “service” on my DD214…
That's a horrible episode to get to Wednesday morning, get injured, get rolled out...and then discharged! I was in 187, and I couldn't get past Monday night. So, I know what a milestone just getting to Tuesday morning is, must less Wednesday morning! I had to go back to the fleet and to the ship. It sucked, and I went through some personal trials, ended up in captain's mast, and almost got killed in a car crash. But I got through. Congratulations on coming back from your brush with the abyss! Not getting through BUD/S sucks because it takes everything you have....so much focus, so much training, so much preparation, and so much work fixing your deficiencies....only to be spit back out on the street or have your @$$ kicked back to the fleet. Then, it's like, "Ok, now what? What do I do now? Where do I go from here?" It's super easy to get lost in life at that point. I think most BUD/S Duds do well eventually, but it's not easy. Having to go back to a 9 to 5 life SUCKS!!!!!!!
@@hennagaijin7856 kind words brother. Thank you for sharing with all of us
@@hemplife666 When I was young, my dad hit rock bottom and attempted suicide. He actually pulled a rifle on two police officers. To this day, I don't know why they didn't shoot him, but they did beat the $#!t out of him before throwing him in jail where he faced a possible long prison sentence. Long story short, he came back, straightened his life out, started his own business, and made a lot of money. Life is actually quite a precious gift, and you need to hang onto it for as long as you can. If you make it back, and I believe you can, you could really be of help to someone down the road who is suffering. This world has no shortage of suffering people, and it's only getting worse. Do not give up!
What I like about these videos is that they speak to a broad range of people, not just military personnel. Some deep wisdom
Universal truths apply to everybody.
“ You are in the right place at the right time, otherwise you would be somewhere else!
Everything happens for a reason, everything.”
I hear you Brother. I spent 33 years in law enforcement, the last 17 as the commanding officer. I left that toxic workplace which was killing me and a toxic relationship to start all over again. Today at 58 I'm an apprentice machinist under a 24 year old master. I have never been happier to wake up every morning and doing something I love. Life is good. ✌
If you do what you. love for work.. is it really work?
@@fatmanfaffing4116 if you do what you love to make a living, you won't work a day in your life. That's the advice I gave my kids.
I totally get you. Took me till age 52 to get my life squared away. Toxic workplace (dumped) and toxic wife (dumped).
I remember starting at the bottom again. I was in the Navy for 12 years, working on F-18's, First Class Petty Officer, running a shop. Then I was a civilian, lost. I was trying to unf&ck the civilian world and failing miserably. I was institutionalized and didn't even know it. It took all the grit I could muster to get out of that hole. Thanks, shipmate!
You touched on a Buddhist saying that, "acceptance is the end of suffering". I love this wisdom and it has helped me many times to accept my circumstances and allows me to move forward. Its saying, "ok I'm up to my neck in shit...I see and accept that..." It's time to dig out and move on don't waste time bitching about the shit just dig your way out or die trying.
That's good shit bro
Brother,I started watching your Vids because of The Legion, I lived in Flayosc near Aubagne and got a close friend that was a legionnaire, Un petit Belge, Un tireur de cul . He was almost in tears when we went to The Museum. I have tremendous respect for the Legion. But after a few vids (now I'm glued to the set) You're really inspiring me, coming out of a tough place. Thanx.
I’m not military but I DO know something of starting over. I’ve started my life over 3 times. Literally with NOTHING to my name.
On the third time I finally did it right. With God, and no drugs and no ego.
I’m not where I wanna be still but I’m not where I was either !!
And NOTHING will work in your life until you do !!!
Thank you Taylor for reminding me where I’ve come from !!
Right on. Just remember that it's not where we are that matters, it's where we're headed and what we're moving towards.
Stern with self, kind with others.
Something that Marcus Arelius said, but thank you for reminding us.
Exactly.
Appreciate the Marcus Aurelius quote. You are a modern day, real time, Stoic philosopher. Love it!
I was in the British army, left the army, got divorced, spiralling down, joined the Legion in the mid 80s, went to the REP and the 13eme in Djibouti, reinvented myself, i was never sf but met a few guys that were before the Legion, one guy told me something which stuck with me, he said " sf taught me what i can give, what i can achieve, the Legion taught me what i can endure"
Retired US Marine here. I started following your channel because I’ve always been fascinated with the concept of the FFL. But what I came to find out is that you have a real positive and brutal self review that can help a lot of others who find themselves in similar circumstances (when you were forced to leave the Teams). Much respect and I think you are really helping people in a way that others can’t. Keep pushing, Brother.
I appreciate your sincere words and support here. Let's get this message out start the ownership movement we need in our country👊🏼🇺🇸
I'm the only one that is binge watching this Guy?
The smart ones do

No I am binge watching
“Show me a hero, and I’ll write you a tragedy” F. Scott Fitzgerald-This topic/story hit deep for me on so many levels. Definitely at my bottom, In every aspect, but like you said, this can be our Day 1. Appreciate you bro

Love this guy
One of the best sayings I heard as a young military member, “Embrace the Suck”.
Complaining about your situation, that you have no control over is a waste of energy and mental suicide.
Give the task at hand your full attention and effort and move onward and upwards.
I love your message and content, very inspiring.
👊🏼
You will become a millionaire so quickly in the civilian world with your work ethic and attitude. Welcome home! Thank you for your service.
In the Aussie army the saying was 'if you can't take a joke you shouldn't have joined'. Same mindset. It's what sets us apart from civvies... yeah I know I got out nearly 40 years ago but you know what I mean . Once a soldier, always a soldier.
Quitters never win and Winners never quit.
I like that quote : discipline is freedom. It gives you a sense of self worth that you can't get from a lack of discipline. Amen.
Appreciate you here brother👊🏼
"Where you are, is exactly where you need to be. Now make a choice, and see what happens."
You really need to fall apart to be someone, ground zero that is when you know who you are
I've been there
I was an Air Dept Div O on CVN-74 during OEF. There was a squadron enlisted guy that was cranking, but he only got to clean out shitters in Officer Country...never saw him in the mess. Talk about a miserable fuck with a bad attitude. He was super-pissed because he signed on to be a helicopter mechanic and the only equipment he got to touch was a swab and a big yellow cadillac.
I tried to encourage him and give him some perspective whenever I bumped into him swabbing out the head. I doubt what I said ever helped, but 3 months after my last conversation with him, I saw him in the hangar bay on top of one of his squadrons helos wrenching on something. He looked like a completely different dude. He was smiling and had a MUCH better attitude.
I stopped and congratulated him for graduating away from that fucking cadillac he was constantly wrestling with, to fixing helicopters. He thanked me and said with a HUGE grin, "I finally figured out why the Chief only let me scrub shitters...it's because I hated scrubbing shitters." Hard lesson, but wisdom earned.
Love these vids, Thanks! My pops is 84 n says life is all about starting over. Up the mountain down the mountain n right back up. He says ya never have it all together, that's on tv shows.. life's life n we do the best we can ta strive for better our whole lives so we gotta just suck it n drive on n get er done
Brother sometimes it's better to fall n get back up then to fall n stay down !! SEMPER FI LFFL. Much respect Brother!!
ive been sober 44.5 years i was still in the army when i sobered up and everyday i am grateful that i got to finish out my 20 and get my retirement.. then i drove truck all over the us for 32 years and been retired now for 4 years in a couple months. i sit in a hotel room and pretty much stay here but i dont find it hard after all i lived in a truck for 32 years i have everything i need here it has a kitchenette small one friidge bathroom shower ac when its hot and heat when its cold. i order my groceries weeklly to be delivered so i dont have a car sont need one i live a simple life many say how can you live like that its like prison not really i can leave anytome i want i just dont want.. i saw other soldiers who sobered up when i did but they didnt do the primary thing DONT DRINK and ssome of them died drunk. yet here i am sober and happy. hapiness is not having what you want happiness is wanting what you have
Optimal is to have what u want and wanting what u hav
i respect you man for sure i would love any more wisdom you drop
I left the Australian Regular Army as a Military Police Corporal. I went back to my old Army Reserve unit, University of NSW Regiment, which was an officer training unit. Due to some army error I was back to being a private and subject to the whims of 20 year old college students with temporary rank as cadet officers. One day I was placing a field grade officer under arrest, the next (virtually) I was being told to clean the toilets. I just looked at this rooster, said 'Yes Sir!' and gave him the cleanest shitter he ever laid eyes on. He was expecting me to spit the dummy but I'd been messed about by real soldiers, professionals, for nearly ten years. Amateurs like him didn't bother me. It was humbling, though. Keep it coming.
An honor to be the 1000th to like this video, i’m on the same predicament on starting again from the bottom
Correct, Discipline equals freedom
Thankful that there’s still good men out there despite the cultural marxist indoctrination we have from the mainstream prevalent nowadays
Email me brother let's rebuild with the correct gameplan: tcavofficial@gmail.com
Wow, this was a good one! My favorite for today. I definitely lack discipline, and I know this a root problem. I agree that discipline and self-worth are directly linked. Thanks for doing this, Taylor!
I served 7 years in the infantry in British army . They medicaly discharged me . Felt like I lost everything including my identity.
I'm now 11 years out .
In 2017 I whent to aubagne to join the legion was there for 4 days they failed me also on the medical .
But it gave me peace I needed to except the military was over for me. I miss it . However all skills and drills I learned whilst I served I put into my life . Starting fresh was a blessing . I own a construction company now . I wouldn't change my life. I found the balance I needed. Love your videos brother . Take it easy.
Men from all walks of life can use this advice.
Women, too.
@@angelagreen1266 yes'm.
I was a Sheriff's Deputy for 10 years after the military. One of the best training officers I ever had (military or civilian) used to say "You don't rise to the occasion, you sink to the level of your training!" Another great truism!
TCAV,
So very true. I, like you, made a mess of my life and lost everything. First couple years I resisted and made my misery worse.
It wasn't until I accepted the facts, assessed my thought process, and took responsibility for my life, that things changed. Once change got going it just took off and now I am happier, better and wealthier than I ever was.
Yes! Loosing everything can absolutely be a blessing to the lucky few who by the use of pain and loss, begin to understand that they alone are the architects of their own misery, and by extension, their only possible remedy.
Thanks for sharing brother
Taylor your videos are an inspiration brother. In my field, I was similar to you, then a series of poor decisions led me to being paralyzed for 4 months, told I would never move again from the neck down, in the hospital for 6 months and by the grace of God, 3 surgeries and I am walking and very very grateful, Those 6 months, I asked a nurse or my friends to just shoot up my IV and let me go. I had no family, so I was hurting really bad. Had great support system of my friends , who you speak about. My old organization just dropped me because I was in rehab for 4 years learning how to walk, talk, eat etc.....when I came back I was shit at the bottom. The best word I could use is Humbled....but grateful and appreciative. Still struggling, but gotta keep fighting. God bless bro and ty for your service and sacrifice. Much love. Remember this my friend....comparison is the thief of joy.

I see a book and a Netflix movie deal in your future. Your videos are terrific and have a great message that everyone can get something out of.
👊🏼
@@tcavofficial for sure a book to film/tv adapt in the future!
TCAV ain't gay, trans, or Black enough to get a Netflix deal and honestly, it's for the best. They'd take his life story and make it a message about his "toxic masculinity" and that the existence of men like him and orgs like the FFL were "indicators that there is still much work to do in implementing a progressive and compassionate democratic world" and if they didn't race and gender swap his character, he'd end up shooting himself after "masculinity failed him" and that he might've lived and been an LGBT ally were he raised by a "strong, brave feminist single mother".
No, Netflix would ruin all the value TCAV offers because they're not about making entertainment, they're about pushing sufficiently tolerable sociopolitical messaging.
TCAV don't need Netflix.
Thank You for kicking my ass this Morning. Well said and on point.
Thank you TCAV!!! I have a different story but the music is the same. " Be the Hero of your own story". Another TCAV masterpiece. Thank you, brother. Gonna work on that tomorrow. .Stronger everyday!!!
Hard knox of life is the best lesson. The difference is to recognise it. Some have no idea what to do. Blame everyone and everything for the situation that they are in.
Ownership's the only way
Taylor you're videos are so humble,it shows what a good person you are 🇨🇵🇺🇸
Always work in progress. We gotta sweep the floor everyday
This message. I needed to hear this. My perception has been skewed. My humility is in trouble. Grabbing and moving with my accountability is way out.
I'm not military, but my mind will be disciplined. Courage. Kick fear in the face, and harness it when needed. Thank you Taylor.

👍 you should hock up with "Wes Watson" when you finish your time at the "FFL". I think it could push you to the next levels.. stay fit & have fun. Stevo out..
Lol this guy would run circles around Wes Watson bro. Prison work outs and a guy who was a SEAL and FFL soldier doesn’t need a prison guy pushing him
Take on topic of Forlorn Hope. Raised my hand a few times, enlisted, re-enlisted. But noted over the years that some didn't seem to understand, there are No Win situations. Where your only victory is technical, via performing Duty with Honor. No EVAC, QRF. Just duty and honor.
Keep climbing that mental ladder Frogman. Stay dangerous. Happy Veterans Day !!
When you are done with your first 5 years with the FFL will you be resigning up or go into the private World. 67, far N. Idaho Homestead here, if you need a place to be think about venturing this way. You got a place to stay!
I have found in life and in work when people get promoted I see where people forget what it was like starting out. These people need to have a personal reset
Raining here in Texas. Gonna be a good day though. Keep it up.
Your Videos are all great.....cheers from Florida, US...Paul
Hey man...Reminds me of something someone told *me*, back in about '85 (When you were just about born, I suppose?) and they said "The path of least resistance makes rivers crooked". Never forgot that. Life ain't easy and we rarely learn from the "good" times. Starting back at the bottom gives one a chance to remake themselves into something better. Looks like your doin' it Bro! Keep it up!
Bro that quote is heavy thanks for sharing🤙🏼
@@tcavofficial Word up! Have yourself a good week my friend!
Hell of a gift brother
We are by definition microcosms of our habits. I suggest a book called Atomic Habits by James Clear. Your military experience gets carried over into civilian life, 100%...I took my military discipline into Mining and crushed it. People who never served never know; they talk shet because that's all they ever do instead of fronting.
It’s interesting how our own perceptions interpret meanings. Maybe the homeless man, from his point of view, he may have been asking for help and was asking for money to get out of the rain. “It’s raining. Change??”. That could have been the pivotal point for “change” in his life. We’ll never know.
Def not because i had already given him change.
@@tcavofficialbro how many people are going to downplay your moment that’s why something are meant JUST FOR YOU FAM
Thank you Brother! I would love to hear about what happens at a Trident Review Board, If you would care to share. Love from Prescott, Az.
Lol, F man that just might be a good video👌🏼
As always, thank you for spreading the wisdom of lessons learned the hard way! It's a shame that these hard lessons can't be bottled up and given to every 15 yr old in the world! How much better off we would all be if we could short circuit all the errors! But, it seems part of the human condition, as youngsters, we are all knuckleheads that know everything and don't think ahead, so we have to stumble and fall, sometimes horribly, sometimes never learn...
We'll work to be the example and let the cards fall where they may
I really miss Corsica beautiful views although Rocky asf the ocean and low altitude jumps made it all worth it
Thankyou
TCAV, awesome advice
Sage wisdom here. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for listening
Thanks Brother
No problem
Man it takes a lot of guts to tell one’s story. Thank you for this I can relate
Headspace and Timing...we all can use it from time to time and you give it here on your channel. Salute!
Damn true
Sometimes failure can be looked at as another opportunity for success. It took me a while to realize that. Self discipline is absolutely essential for success. It looks like you are living a life of self discipline and fulfillment. There are power in your words. Speak it, and it will be done. As long as you believe in it. I think your story embodies that line of thinking. Keep it coming! This is inspirational! Much respect!
Absolutely!
What a way to start my morning.
Be stern to yourself but kind to others. Brother at arms enjoy your day.
Right on
Seriously funny. And sad. And exhilarating. Hopeful. Cheerful. Insightful. Thanks. Boss. I appreciate you.🤠
I appreciate that
It's OK to recognize and say that God threw you a lifeline. That is the truth and that is my personal testimony as well.
Can’t wait to join honestly I know it’s going to be hard and life changing been studying French on and off here now for about 3 or 4 years now just taking everything in rn and making my changes to my schedule now ran 6 miles in an hour yesterday

Outstanding message. Ralph Waldo Emerson… that’s who you echo here, too. That genius talked about trusting the “mystic officials” that put the people around you that are meant for you. That you need. There’s some truth to this. Have a good one, TCAV. 🤙🏽
Mystic officials. That's what's up bro I dig that👊🏼
@@tcavofficial I’ll try to find the essay it was from. Emerson was brilliant. Also, I worked for a Seal 2001-2003 and he was from Britain. Entered our Navy in the 70s. He was a solid man. I remember many times I’d go in his office he’d be studying French and anytime other pilots from France would drop into our flightline he’d task me with picking them up sometimes. He loved France. I think he retired there, not sure. Those years we were stationed in Naples. Major growing up years for me. I was just becoming a husband and dad. My daughter was diagnosed with autism. Very challenging, but some of the things you talk about, having these mental tools to develop a better mindset and frequency, really do help. People should pay close attention. 🤙🏽
@@tcavofficial “We live amid surfaces, and the true art of life is to skate well on them… To finish the moment, to find the journey’s end in every step of the road, to live the greatest number of good hours, is wisdom.

Since our office is with moments, let us husband them. Five minutes of today are worth as much to me as five minutes in the next millennium. Let us be poised, and wise, and our own, today. Let us treat the men and women well; treat them as if they were real; perhaps they are… Without any shadow of doubt, amidst this vertigo of shows and politics, I settle myself ever the firmer in the creed that we should not postpone and refer and wish, but do broad justice where we are, by whomsoever we deal with, accepting our actual companions and circumstances, however humble or odious as the mystic officials to whom the universe has delegated its whole pleasure for us.

You are very well spoken mr. Cavanaugh. Very wise. You and i are the same age, i dont have the military service like you, but you and i are the same. Have had to completely start over, lost legit everything. Its a fight but one worth fighting.
Have to bro👊🏼
Thank you for coming at us straight and hard. I’m coming back at you the same way, with much respect. I noticed you hesitated while searching for someone or something to give thanks to in the stream. May I suggest you check out the Orthodox Church if you are so inclined. I will be praying for you. Blessings and

You’re story sits well with me, I just got kicked out of the Air Force because I ran with the wrong crowd and fucked up a lot. Pretty soon I got an els. I even had my dream job (firefighting). I’m at the bottom now but your videos motivate the hell out of me to get out of my situation
BOOM👊🏼
"What else is more fitting, than right where you are?" That just hit hard brother...
J'adore ce mec 🇫🇷🇺🇸
Totally respect you Sir
Thank you for responding Taylor. I watch many of your videos. You have a very special gift to help young people. So many kids today are lost. You give them hope man. Keep going .. Never stop the good that you are sharing. God Bless you
Much respect for owning your shit, Semper Fi Brother.
Love that Devil Dawg love bro👊🏼🇺🇸
Great message and Right on... well said, Brother.
Thanks for listening
Thank you, now looking forward to the many more toilets coming my way!!
Well done Bro! You said it clearly and precisely once again...
You reminded me of a 1984 book that I read when it first came out, called "The Precious Present" by Spencer Johnson...
The past does not matter, the future we might never see. It is all about this very moment. Live it to the fullest...
Be safe and keep the great videos coming...
Thank you, Taylor
Multiple rebirths in one lifetime shaved away alot of my dark karma.I’m not completely proud of it but I’ve been there. Never the FFL. Hardcore
Taylor my dude. Great topic had to pull over in my truck listening to this. I think it’s odd but really fascinating how we write the chapters in our book. I used to say I hate my life I’m no good all that stuff. Until I forced myself to look in the mirror and forgive myself. It felt so good. To not be mad at me for having to start over. I always say when I speak to recovering addicts or guy in jail. You can ashamed of your decisions but you cannot be ashamed of who you are. Those poor decisions don’t define us they are just chapters in the book of us. The book doesn’t even stop when we die because our legacy and the stuff we do right now will stand the test of time. Keep writing your story be humble be helpful be a hero that doesn’t need a cape or superpower. Awesome wake up this morning. Been waiting since 4am to listen to this in the truck. Thanks my dude.
Bro THAT'S what's up brother👊🏼 Appreciate your support here we'll STAY gettin it⚜️🔱
Former Law enforcement. Arrested indicted tried convicted…overturned and cleared but by that time everyone and everything fell away …only choice you have is to pivot and keep moving. Can’t thank you enough for these videos man. It helps a lot 💪
Boom!🫵🏻👊🏼🏴
Appreciate your honesty! Very much actually! Thank you, man! 👍🏻💪🏻
Always!
Your a hero to me man!
Def not, but i appreciate your support on this journey.
This is your best video. I’ve never been in the military but I don’t regret not joining like I used to. I’ve been down several times in life but I continue to get back up. I’m nearing a point where I need to listen to other men your age who still have the undying fire in their bellies. The world right now is in dire straits and needs men like yourself to set a precedent of virtues for other men to follow.

Awesome stories and thank you for your service to our country Sir USA 🇺🇸
Thank You dide🎉
I keep coming back to this particular video, it got me thinking far and wide to what am i supposed to do, I'm still intending to join the legion though, been planning for it and preparing my physiques to my best performance and cleaning up my system.
This brings back my old habits that I've lost 5 years ago, back then i could run a 10km marathon with no sweat but now getting back to it I can't even finnish 10 rounds on the running track 😅 but i know progress doesn't come instantly I've learned that years ago, that gave me purpose and I'm not planning on backing out, not now.
You are a fuckin inspiration and a tonic brother. Love the vids!
The legion helped you put aside that narcissism. Pride, honor has a place. Narcissism does not.
thank you Sir! i'm waiting
I just went for a jog yesterday with a broken collarbone in a sling. I finished and started screaming. I think I’ll mostly just do no carbs for now and limit exercise until it’s better lol once I’m better I’m going straight to France. My wife said I can, but Even though I love her I know I have to go even if she’d leave me
Email me if serious: tcavofficial@gmail.com
TCAV, Thank you once again, for the honesty, the clarity, & the level of being humble ! I greatly appreciate your life story on so many different levels. Keep bringing it!
U know i'll STAY bringin it!👊🏼

I am old, and I am glad for you. You sound like my late father, one of the greatest generation, who was extremely disciplined, grew up in the Great Depression and became an Aeronautical Engineer. People growing up today face challenges but they don’t really know depression when there’s no food for the family and no work.
I have to say bro, for those who see a tough, tattooed, brash guy like yourself and think you're probably just another shallow narcissist, couldn't be further from the truth. You have an insight and perspective that can only come from having been at the bottom and have climbed your way out. Plus, you have a down to earth, no nonsense way of putting out the things you have learned along the way. Its a great combination for those who can learn from you.
I appreciate that bro.
@@tcavofficial You are the real deal, you were at the top. Then back at the bottom. You could be an asshole, look at what ive done jerk, but you arent. Your down to earth, humble attitude is such an amazing break from todays world full of fake people. Stay safe legionnaire.
You're full of wisdom sir.
Always learning and a lot more work to do
