Hitler was basically stupid for starting the war when he did. He thought that he was in 1914 instead of 1938. He didn't have a navy or an air force. All he had was an army, which was too small to control Europe and Russia. He didn't have the ability to invade and occupy the British Isles, which is just a few miles from France. His logistics sucked and he couldn't defend Germany from counter-attack. He should have waited until the 1950s or 1960s until he had the proper weapon systems. If he had had a better political doctrine he could have achieved his objectives through political means.
He lost the war when he fired the first shot.
