First, obey.
Soldiers must first learn to obey.
1. Make obedience a habit: West Point Military Academy adopts "Spartan-style" training, which makes the students exhausted and have no spare capacity to put forward resistance.
2. Everything starts from scratch: at the beginning of the training, the new students have no names, no personal belongings, and the schedule is full, so that the students only have time to execute orders and no time to think.
Second, there is no excuse for work.
1, absolute system, discipline is discipline: West Point discipline is famous for its strictness. At first, everyone may be just for the sake of form, but after a long time, they become accustomed to it. Students gradually turn military school goals into personal goals and become conscious disciplines.
2. West Point's "four standard answers" can only be "report to the chief executive, yes", "report to the chief executive, no excuse" and "report to the chief executive, I don't know". The students can't say a word, but the CEO only wants the result, not the explanation why they didn't finish the task.
Third, details determine success or failure.
1. Start with small things: West Point attaches great importance to the detailed training of freshmen and requires freshmen to recite their knowledge. In addition to remembering how many lights there are in the conference hall and how much water there is in the reservoir, it also includes reciting the daily calendar in public (what time to do today). The school pays great attention to the details of clothing appearance.
2. "Give me anyone who is not a mental patient, and I can train him into an excellent talent." This is the famous saying of the president of West Point Military Academy.

Sixth, popularity.
1, West Point Military Academy believes that soldiers are not a role that people stay away from, but talents who can help everyone when needed.
2. Freshmen should salute people including seniors and address them as "Sir" and "You", which is regarded as cowardly behavior in society, but in the army, freshmen must learn to respect and learn to be modest.
3. Ask freshmen to remember 1400 their names. In fact, after one year, freshmen can basically remember the names and basic information of 4000 students.
4. Never be a minute late. Being late at any time will be severely punished. It is the practice of West Point Military Academy that when someone is late, he will take the initiative to recite the story of Napoleon's defeat of Waterloo because he is one minute late.
Seven, good at cooperation.
1, learn to cooperate and graduate: everyone should report anything; Some tasks must be completed by a group of people in training; There will be "death" of your partner in training, and you have to face several enemies alone.
2. Creating an "* * *" enemy, and the instructor is consciously in a "hostile" state with the students will increase the tension in the military school and make the students more United.
Everyone who makes mistakes should bear the responsibility: the army is a whole. One person's mistake will also lead to the failure of the whole military operation, so it is often one person who makes a mistake and the whole team will be punished together.
4. Officers should not have their favorite friends and buddies among soldiers.
Eight, only the first, no best.

Fourteen, the sense of responsibility.
Students at any time, whether wearing military uniforms or not; Both inside and outside the West Point Military Academy, whether on duty or as a dormitory attendant, have the obligation and responsibility to perform their duties, and this starting point is not to get rewards or escape punishment, but comes from an innate sense of responsibility.
15. Nothing is impossible.
