             At the young age of thirteen, Donald Trump enrolled in the New York Military Academy. Being there he was faced with many obstacles that he would perceive as easy to overcome. He was told when to do this, do that, get in step, keep your mouth closed, take a shower, do your homework, go to bed, and to get up. He let nothing get in his way. "For the first time, Donald was in a place that encouraged and channeled competitiveness and aggression instead of tamping it down." (Blair, 237) At this point in his life, winning really mattered, and he wanted to exceed everyone else's expectations. And sure enough, he did. Trump succeeded at NYMA in various ways.
