Rate this book
This is not another book about hustling harder or forcing positive thinking.

Hidden behind the polished facades of success is a the world’s most powerful quietly rely on a deeper, unseen force — the spiritual science of reality creation. While the masses scramble for strategies and grind themselves into exhaustion, the true insiders move effortlessly, operating beyond luck, beyond logic, and beyond the rules you were taught to believe.


Outsmarting Reality pulls back the curtain, handing you the blueprint to unlock the same hidden mechanics. You'll learn why the rules of the universe were never what you were told — and how to finally bend them to shape the life you truly desire.

It's time to stop playing by the wrong rulebook. Discover the spiritual science they never wanted you to know — and begin creating the reality you were always meant to live.

The cover grabbed me and I got the book on Kindle Unlimited.

I only found out that this is the same Nero I follow on YouTube after quickly looking at Goodreads reviews once I obtained it. (It should have clicked way faster, I mean, how many Neros are out there?)

I mostly eye-roll at manifestation books. I HATE it when they mask outlandish statements behind mumbo jumbo that sounds sciencey. Nero's book doesn't do that. It's refreshing to have a manifestation book that is firmly rooted in logic.

I also like that he doesn't pad his book with a lot of words. He keeps it short and to the point.

If you read this book with Bending Reality by Victoria Song (one of my favorites of all time,) you'll be in a great place on your journey.

I’ve read, heard, and seen my fair share of manifestation material. I came into reading this book thinking that I would be doing meditation journeys and tapping into my third eye; I was delightfully surprised to be incorrect.

Nero Knowledge teaches you how to think of the universe, yourself, and reality, to better understand how to live the reality you desire. His clear and simple explanations offer the reader an understanding of how shifting reality works from the inside out. He ultimately explains how—no matter the technique—it is the intention, conviction, and emotion behind it that changes your life. The message is simple: you are in control of your life, and it is your choice to live by default or design. By choosing to actively shift your energy and focus, you can have the reality you want.

Some of my favorite quotes from the book:

1. Giving yourself the reality you desire is simply a process of internally, intensely, and vividly experiencing what you desire within instead of without.

2. Seek first to be internally fulfilled, satisfied, calm, and relaxed without your desired reality[…]

3. Those who are internally independent of reality will never be the slave of condition, circumstance, or events of reality.

4. Manifestation isn’t a matter of altering reality; it’s about altering oneself.

5. You don’t want anything in this world even though you think you do. What you want is a different state of consciousness than the one you have now.

6. You must live in your world[ … ]Anything that does not align with your desired reality must be filtered out.

7. To be realistic simply means to define your world by what you can see, which indirectly is a confession of you being limited.

8. The most emotionally intense moments, whether positive or negative, imprint the subconscious and define your baseline of worth.

9. On adhering to the concepts of success and failure: Without realising it, you have made your internal dependent on the external. Without realising it, you have empowered the external and made yourself powerless.

10. Until you can redefine the experiences of reality to serve you, reality will control you.

11. Money is not the source of abundance.
Business tactics are not the source of success.
No person is the source of your love, validation, or fulfillment.
And external achievements are never the source of your worth.
When you believe that anything out there holds power over your reality, you hand over your throne. You become a servant to the very illusions you were born to command.


Outsmarting Reality is a solid book that changed my perspective, and may just change my life.

I don’t remember the last time I read a book this fast, the content was simple to understand yet useful in terms of explaining how the universal laws work.

I can’t recommend this book enough for those that are looking into changing their reality forever.

Most of what the book contains has already been explained by Nero in his videos but it is so much better to have it all in one place.

There are some things that I have not encountered in the video guides and that seem crucial, they may turn out to be the missing pieces for some people. An example of that would be the visualization technique Nero gives in this book. Probably everyone who reads this book is familiar with visualization but there are some details here that are new to me. Another example of a concept I havent heard before is that of "the mental nudges" one gets when he is guided towards the desired reality.

What I think could be done better is giving more practical stuff with real life examples. I understand that Nero tried to keep it short and on point but I think many would benefit from real examples they can resonate with. Maybe we will see that on the next edition of the book.

Either way, thank you Nero for everything. I had much of that knowledge prior to finding your channel and reading your book, but you have gathered it all in one place in an understandable way.

5/5 because the value of this book exceeds this price by miles.

I found the book to be a solid introduction to Nero's teachings, especially for those just starting out. I did hope for more depth, particularly with examples of manifestation and insights into Nero's personal journey through poverty and faith.

There were moments where the content felt repetitive, which made it seem like it was padding the length rather than adding value. I gave it 3 stars because it reminded me of my collection of notes from Nero's YouTube channel.

However, I was deeply touched by his mother’s story; it resonated with me and sparked my interest to learn more about her life. Her experiences seem to have significantly shaped Nero’s aspirations, and I genuinely believe a collaborative book from them would be captivating. Their stories have a lot of potential to inspire others.

NERO for the WIN
So cool for him and so good to see
inspiring stuff sir
Also the fact this has a 4.85 on here, like read the damn book I BEG YOU

It is the best most practical description of Esoteric Cognitive Metaphysics

The subject of my main focus right now, at least the metaphysics of Universal consciousness and the actual mathematics of the Geometry so not necessarily ideal for me or Ace Hardware, or my movie that I NEED TO FINISH or my website, but fuck it you only learn about the shapes and patterns that comprise our universe once, So this is the most important shit like ever??? Kinda sad tho idk if i'll ever find an interest that top this one lmao.

i've read a few books on spiritual & esoteric topics, but i felt like none of the information has truly "clicked" until i read this book. nero explains these concepts in a very grounded and actionable manner. he explains the mechanics behind ideas that are often sensationalised. i had so many lightbulb moments reading this. this whole book is a bar, write that down ✍️

A life changing experience.

This is one of the greatest books I’ve ever read. On changing your reality and uplifting yourself. I’ve read over hundreds of books on this topic and none come close to this. Giving you practical solutions to become the best you that you want to be. Not by looking for external motivation. But by shifting yourself internally and watching your life shift externally. It’s easy to read , understand and apply. This is a must read for all people from all walks of life. Whatever your goal in life is this book will help you achieve it.

I have been fortunate to read a handful of books on manifestation by prominent figures such as Neville Goddard, Napoleon Hill, and Joseph Murphy and have read the various books on hermeticism. But whilst already being exposed to these authors and books, I was significantly impressed by the depth, insight, and model provided by Nero. It serves as almost a one stop shop for the previous things I have explored. I did struggle at times with engagement whilst exploring this book, and feel it could have encapsulated the knowledge in a shortened read. However, the depth and surrounding material is likely a lot more beneficial for those earlier on in their journey. It's a book that needs to be re-read intermittently for sure, to maximize its imprint. On the back of this recommended read I will be following Nero's work, he clearly has the answer to many a question.

I like this book. Explains in a simple way how you create your reality on the physical, mental and spiritual plane - whether you're conscious of it or not.

I'm happy that I read the Kybalion just before reading this, bc it helped me get a deeper understanding of the concepts Nero explains here.

"Reality is like putting on a pair of VR glasses and forgetting you're wearing them". This is one of my favorite quotes from the book. Not only bc of the truth in the quote, but bc personally I've experienced deep feelings of dissociation since 6 years back (it has stopped after my spiritual awakening) and I would always describe the feeling as if I was in a VR game... What a beautiful synchronicity it was to read that quote.

I'm definitely coming back to this book and next time I'll get a physical copy. Sorry Nero, I pirated it this time...

Very good book, nearly gave it 5 stars but unfortunately it was not polished enough. Frequently missing punctuation or has blatant errors which make you have to reread a line sometimes to keep the intended flow.

That said, the content of this book is brilliant. There is a lot more to gleam from this book than just “how do I get shiny object x y or z…”

It is much more about learning how to frame and construct your perception. It cuts through typical fluff and is laid out in a very simple to understand manner.

I think if he is to make another book, even if it’s just a new and improved version of this one with a professional editor to check over everything, it will be a book worthy of 5 stars.

Definitely recommend.

Absolutely incredible!

I have been studying this information for about 2 years now and this book has opened my mind so much more than what I have gathered thus far. I also follow the “Nero Knowledge” YouTube channel! This information is GOLD! If you read reviews before reading - READ THIS NOW! Your life will be changed forever and continue to come back to it as much as you need. This is a foundation to build on as you live in your desired reality! Keep going - ITS ALWAYS WORKING AND YOU ARE ALWAYS WINNING SO LONG AS THERE IS BREATH IN YOUR LUNG!

The Most Concise and Clear explanation of how it is and how it works

I have a full library both physically printed and virtual titles on spirituality, law of attraction, biology of belief, ancient teachings etc., Nero Knowledge’s book is on my number one list that brings it all together with incredible clarity.

Read and reread, pay attention, take in the teaching and watch how your experience shifts to a whole new level that will amaze you, it’s up to you, it’s your own power and always has been. Wake up literally to a new dawn. Blessings to all and Thank you Nero!

Read this book in like 5 days- 260 pages or so. Felt sad finishing it.

Although I don’t know if following his guidance will work, I’ve gotten some amazing advice from this book and Nero in general which has helped me throughout the days, on lifting myself up, and in a way I have these moments where I feel really good.

I think this is just incredible knowledge that everyone should have at their disposal, and whether to use it or not is fine but this is a book full of gems, it’s comforting and enlightening same time. Amazing.

Outsmarting reality is a quick read that can be done in a day or two but will likely take longer to completely finish.While the information is nothing new as most of these concepts are things you will have heard about before or even thought yourself, it is nice to see the teachings all placed together in one book.It does have some important information about how to manifest with the theory and actionable steps in one place but I also liked that the mechanics behind some of the concepts was explained clearly. Can be a little repetitive with some concepts but an overall worthy read.

I don’t think I’ll reference any other book as much as I’ll reference this,
this is one of the most, if not THE most informative book on esoteric, metaphysics knowledge written in a way that is so comprehensive and easy to understand
this is a book I will never forget. and will re-read constantly. every self- aware, self improving, self-loving person needs to read this at least once in their lifetime

Wow- what a read!!!!

A reminder of things I have come to learn before but I really loved the attention being focused on frequency and how consciousness is all that exists and ever will. It’s helpful in allowing you to let go of so much and simply *breathe*

4.5/5 if I could. The miss out on the 5 is just the personal preference of some religious links to explain points which is valid in how it’s done, but just a personal preference, I’d rather not have that in!

Worth the read!

This was a great read and helped to get the ball rolling again as I've recently taken a break from reading. The book does a great job on altering one's consciousness, essentially transforming one's reality. It teaches the need to shift internally before externally as no external factors without granted permission could have an effect on your reality.

love the clarity

I gained Such an indent clarity on the topic of manifestation what is a bit without but I thought I already knew. But this, explain it in a way that took me to another level to actually practice that which I thought I already knew. ** I feel like reading the sample …I’ll be back to update this after reading the full book.

Slightly repetitive and needs proofreading for silly mistakes like missing some words, but otherwise pretty decent — I already knew all this in my own way and seeing it in different form has genuinely been insightful. Some v beautiful points, nom nom. Yay for consciousness and aligning accordingly

Get ready to outsmart reality

This is simple and at the same time more complex and easy because it gives you the thinking to outsmart reality. Each word and chapter give you something to consider because as you read do you think your desired reality is possible. If you feel it is, then it is.

it's alright

Sort of felt like I was always waiting for a big reveal in this book. Also not a fan of the same saying or pheqse being repeated 5-10 times in a row using different wording and that happens a lot in this book. Think I have one or two tangible things that can be done from this book the rest was sort of fluff and filler.

I don’t think anything can encapsulate it in its true richness, your reading your level of consciousness and understanding as with everything so it will be a personal experience that can free you if you choose that it will, but at the end of the day it’s all just YOU.
