Ah, the corporate world. A place where dreams go to die and Excel spreadsheets go to multiply. Or is it? What if I told you that beneath the surface of mind-numbing meetings and soul-crushing cubicles lies a secret world of corporate ninjas, silently shaping the fate of companies and careers alike? Welcome, dear reader, to "The Art of the Corporate Ninja: Succeeding in Business Without Losing Your Soul (or Your Mind)". If you've picked up this book, chances are you're either: A bright-eyed newcomer to the corporate jungle, eager to learn its ways (bless your heart) A battle-hardened veteran, wondering if there's more to life than TPS reports Someone who accidentally grabbed this instead of "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" (honest mistake, they're practically the same thing) Regardless of which category you fall into, strap in. You're about to embark on a journey that will transform you from a mere corporate drone into a lean, mean, PowerPoint-presenting machine. "In the world of business, the people who are most successful are those who are doing what they love." - Warren Buffett Okay, that's a nice quote and all, but let's be real. Not all of us can be Warren Buffett, sipping on Cherry Coke while making billion-dollar decisions. Some of us are just trying to make it through the day without stapling our tie to important documents or falling asleep in a meeting about meetings. That's where the art of the corporate ninja comes in. This book will teach you how to: Navigate office politics with the stealth of a shadow Deliver presentations that don't put people to sleep (a true superpower) Master the art of looking busy while doing absolutely nothing Climb the corporate ladder without stepping on too many fingers And most importantly, maintain your sanity and sense of humor in a world gone mad But wait, there's more! Unlike other business books that take themselves way too seriously, this one comes with a healthy dose of sarcasm, pop culture references, and the occasional dad joke. Because let's face it, if you can't laugh at the absurdity of corporate life, you're in for a long, dreary career. So whether you're aiming for the corner office or just trying to survive until Friday, this book has something for you. It's part survival guide, part comedy routine, and part Zen koan (yes, really). By the time you're done, you'll be slicing through red tape with the precision of a samurai sword and deflecting pointless emails faster than Neo dodging bullets in The Matrix. A word of warning: reading this book may cause uncontrollable eye-rolling, sudden outbursts of laughter, and a strong desire to karate chop your keyboard. Side effects may include increased productivity, better work-life balance, and the ability to see through corporate BS from a mile away. Ready to unleash your inner corporate ninja? Turn the page, young grasshopper. Your journey to business badassery begins now. Oh, and if your boss catches you reading this at work, just tell them it's a very serious book about synergizing paradigms and leveraging core competencies. They'll either be impressed or so confused they'll leave you alone. Win-win. Now, let's begin our training. Hajime!

Explains how the initiatory practices of the Ninja can be used to achieve self-mastery • Uses the five human archetypes of lover, seeker, magus, soul warrior, and mystic • Shows how to access kuji-kiri, the positive energy of the Ninja Godai, to dispel fear, disempowerment, and soul fatigue The Ninja are a mysterious warrior elite said to be so spiritually advanced they knew the mind and will of God. Regarded with awe as masters of invisibility and “warriors of the shadow-self,” their legendary skills include the ability to command the elements and transform themselves into Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Void--the nothingness from which all things stem. In this book Ross Heaven reveals the training exercises and mental discipline used by the Ninja to develop these extraordinary physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual skills. Central to Ninja philosophy is the understanding that there is no higher power than the actualized human being. The Ninja believe there are four gates to freedom, and to pass through them we must overcome four initiatory ordeals. Succeeding at these enables us to combat fear, find true power, clarify our vision, and overcome the soul fatigue that is at the root of our personal and social problems in order to embrace our positive energies and realize our talents. Ross Heaven guides us through these four gateways with exercises and initiations that utilize the energy of the lover, seeker, magus, soul warrior, and mystic as well as dealing with their shadow manifestations that may be causing problems in our lives. We learn how to break the destructive habits of the past and create a bushido, a personal code to live by. Without initiation, we cannot access and channel our energies; they remain uncontrolled or even work against us. Ross Heaven provides the key that allows us to turn these elemental forces into allies.

The Invisible Actor presents the captivating and unique methods of the distinguished Japanese actor and director, Yoshi Oida. While a member of Peter Brook's theatre company in Paris, Yoshi Oida developed a masterful approach to acting that combined the oriental tradition of supreme and studied control with the Western performer's need to characterise and expose depths of emotion. Written with Lorna Marshall, Yoshi Oida explains that once the audience becomes openly aware of the actor's method and becomes too conscious of the actor's artistry, the wonder of performance dies. The audience must never see the actor but only his or her performance. Throughout Lorna Marshall provides contextual commentary on Yoshi Oida's work and methods. In a new foreword to accompany the Bloomsbury Revelations edition, Yoshi Oida revisits the questions that have informed his career as an actor and explores how his skilful approach to acting has shaped the wider contours of his life.

Ninja Fighting Techniques explains how to defend yourself against real-world threats using techniques perfected centuries ago by the great Ninja masters. Author Stephen K. Hayes is the world's leading expert on Ninjutsu techniques. In this book, he presents the Ninja "Five Elements" system to explain fundamental aspects of self-defense. According to Japanese Buddhist belief, human nature is connected to the natural world and the five elements. By understanding that connection, essential responses to any threat become clear: Earth--Remain grounded in your thinking and footing to repel attempts to distract or deceive you Water--Shift, angle and move fluidly to confuse attackers and put them off balance Fire--See where a situation is going as it develops and intercept it at the critical moment Wind--Stay light on your feet and move nimbly to evade attempts to pin you down Void--Control a fight's direction by changing dynamics to confuse your attacker Ninja Fighting Techniques explains how the five elements can become automatic, unconscious responses for fighters who train the Ninja way. Through study and practice they become instinctive, effectively employed precisely when you need them without thinking. The advantage of Ninja teachings over other martial disciplines is that, in addition to providing physical combat methods, they teach you to develop a better understanding of human behavior and psychology as well as "real-time" awareness of your surroundings--invaluable in any combat and street fighting situation. With over 300 full-color photographs and detailed step-by-step instructions, this book shows you how the ancient self-defense techniques developed by the Ninja are still unsurpassed today!
