Constructive Psychology or the Building of Character by Personal Effort

Constructive Psychology or the Building of Character by Personal Effort is a book written by J.D. Buck, which explores the concept of personal development and character building through the lens of psychology. The book delves into the idea that individuals have the power to shape their own character through conscious effort and self-reflection, and that this process can lead to greater happiness, success, and fulfillment in life. Buck draws on a range of psychological theories and practices to offer practical advice and guidance for readers looking to improve themselves and build a stronger, more resilient character. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in personal growth, psychology, or self-help.Constructive Psychology turns the thoughtful and intelligent individual back upon himself and undertakes to make exceeding plain those few simple principles by which he may adjust himself by personal effort and establish harmonious relations to God to Nature and to his fellowmen. He will find no necessity for consulting libraries, philosophies, authorities, or theologies, helpful as these may be at certain times or under certain circumstances. He will appeal solely to his own intelligence, his own conscience and his own experience. This is the only source for him of actual knowledge. He knows only that which he has learned by definite, personal experience.
