When his teacher spoke of the German's role in the world, Hitler, "would sit enraptured and often on the verge of tears"(Encarta). When Hitler's father died when he was thirteen he began to experiment with watercolor painting but did not achieve much. Being rejected by the Academy of Arts in Vienna as untalented, Hitler then struggled as a laborer in the building trades and painted cheap postcards for a living. During these times he was very poor and often slept in parks and received his meals from a soup kitchen. This was the beginning of feelings of discontent and hatred towards his homeland of Austria, which he labeled a "patchwork nation." He wrote in Mein Kampf, "I was convinced that the State was sure to obstruct every really great German and support everything un-German. I hated the motley collection of Czechs, Ruthenians, Poles, Hungarians, Serbs, Croats, and above all that, the ever-present fungoid growth-Jews. I became a fanatical anti-Semite." Hitler" s hatred of poverty, devotion to his German heritage, and his loathing of Jews merged to form the seeds of his later political policies. He also learned of how to successfully manage and increase his power by studying the politics of the mayor of Vienna and he took special note of his practice of "using all instruments of existing power and of gaining the favor of influential institutions so he could draw the greatest possible advantages of his own movement from such old established sources of power"(Morrow, Lance).
In 1912, Hitler left for Munich where he picked up small jobs such as a carpenter, an architect, draftsman and a watercolorist. He barely made enough to get by but was content with being in his German environment. Then in the outbreak of World War I in 1914, Hitler gave up his Austrian citizenship to enlist in the German army. He was placed in the 16th Bavarian Infantry Regiment. Hitler would not fight for Austria but was willing to die for Germany.
