Same way as Hitler. He tried to conquer Russia, lost a vast army, and was totally defeated within 2 years.
To be more specific, Napoleon lost because his pride got to him: the invasion of Russia was a punitive war that Napoleon started to get back at Tsar Alexander, who pretty much betrayed Napoleon by trading with his hated enemy, Britain. Alexander & Napoleon were close until then, and this act infuriated the french emperor.
Napoleon's army boasted their high mobility by surviving off the land. Napoleon did not lose simply because he didn't bring winter clothes; he lost bcause his tactics of using the local land for supplies failed against a combination of Russian winter & scorched earth policies. Basically, Napoleon's strategy was a bad combination against the Russian territory, kind of like putting rock against paper in a rock-paper-scissors game. The Russians burnt everything they couldn't carry with them in their retreat, so Napoleon's army had to starve in the freezing winter.
By losing over 60% of France's entire active duty soldiers at the time in a single campaign, Napoleon made himself VERY vulnerable to enemy invasions, and due to a shortage of manpower and specialists, he was unable to properly defend himself in the later battles.
