| If you are on some project then you should have to have correlation with team members to achieve any goal. Even if you have knowledge even you know that I can handle with my own way it will become overconfidence |

Confindence is what you really are and having faith in yourself.
Overconfidence is what you are not, but you want show-off. |

First, we analyze that work, then decided we can do that work this is confidence.
Without analyzing that work then decided we can do that work this is overconfidence. |

Confidence is belief in our attitude matches to our ability and take decision after observing the result.
Confidence is a positive attitude and result in construction.
Overconfidence is a belief in which our attitudes crosses our ability and we take decision without observing the result, overconfidence is a negative attitude and result in destruction. |

A Confident Person always believes in itself. And find the solution which is best for all...
But an egoistic person always shows his overconfidence and always thinks about itself...

| Confidence is having proper knowledge about not only self abilities but also about self limitations, however overconfidence is not having the knowledge about the second aspect of self. |

Confidence : We plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future or having any certainty of uncertainties.
Overconfidence : We see the world suffering, we know there is possibility same or similar things happening to us but we still get married.
When I was in 6th grade I was the last man picked but I got a friend he told me to answer the question which sir is asking (I knew the answer but I was to shy to give it) I did what he said without knowing what could happen but sir was literally shocked actually no one knew the answer but I did I got the confidence from that day. |

| Being confident is an asset for every human being, it makes us to expose to the world and will come to know our confident levels, but being overconfidence will make us to ignore the world and will no more recognized. We should always compare our levels with others n try to accomplish but never degrade others with our rudeness nothing but over confidence. |

| Hi friends. There is a small difference between confidence and overconfidence. Confidence means I can do that. Over confidence means Only I can do that. This small difference leads to change one's life totally. In life we put confidence towards you, then you can achieve anything, with over confidence one can achieve nothing. |

| The person do not commit the mistake when he work with confidence and is satisfy after complete his job with confidence. The person makes too much mistakes whenever he work with over confidence and doesn't satisfy himself by over confidence performance. Over confidence lead the person towards defeat and loss of reputation. Confidence results you happiness and positive attitude. But over confidence results sadness and dissatisfaction. |

Confident says I can do the work.
Over confident says only I can do the work.

But overconfident demotivates others. |

If any person has believe on own than this is confident.
But any person has believe on others that they can't do this, without considering their potential, is overconfidence. |

Act of determination after knowing your limits (means chances of failures) is confidence and act of determination without knowing your limits (means ignoring slightest chance of failure) is overconfidence. If you are aware of the possible outcome & there is only 1% chance of your success & still you believe you can do it then it is called as confidence (results don't matter whether you are successful or not. There may be failures but since those failures are expected. You are said to be confident because you can succeed if you are well prepared) while if there is 99% chance of your success & still you ignore chances of 1% failure then you are said to be overconfident and because of ignoring 1% failing chance you may not put sufficient effort and may fail.
So basically confidence means act of determination after expected worst case scenario & overconfidence means act of determination after ignoring the slightest possiblity of a worst case. |

Self-confidence is the confidence or trust one has in oneself. Confidence comes with the knowledge and awareness that one possesses certain qualities and abilities to perform various tasks. A person with self-confidence is an optimist and succeeds in overcoming all obstacles.
Over-confidence is disastrous. Over- confidence is the outcome of pride. Whatever abilities we have, come from God. They are are his gifts to us. They are not of our own making, hence we turn out to be over-confidence. This is necessary to keep in mind that we should have reasonable confidece in our abilities. |

Confidence is being comfortable in your own skin and expressing yourself without feeling insecure or nervous. It comes when one knows one's strengths as well as faults, and accepts them to improve oneself.
Overconfidence is when a person 'believes' that he/she is right every single time and that there's nothing the others 'need' do, but follow him/her happily. |

The attitude "I can do" shows self confidence of a person where as the attitude "I only can do" shows their over confidence...
Brief explanation(of course not required)
If any one think that they "can do", it shows their belief in themselves and its called confidence. If they think that they "only can do" they are under estimating the others. It shows their over confidence. No one the world are less capable they have their own ability. |

| When you do a task in an assertive and convincing manner, that reflects your confidence. While if your performance is not proportionate to your talks that is over-confidence. |

If we respect our point of view as well as other point of view dsnt matter they have different opinions that we dnt agree to it, but still we respect them is called 'confidence '.
But when we consider our opinions the only right one and thinks every other fool then it is called 'Over confidence' |

Knowing your abilities is confidence and thinking you are the only capable person is over confidence.
Let me quote an example
Suppose i wrote exam very well.... if someone asks me how the exam was then if i say i will get 90% for sure...its confidence because you know how u wrote
But if i say i get top in the class or college..... then its over confidence because i dont know how the rest of the college wrote the exam. may be some one in the class is better student than me....
So knowing your abilities is confidence and thinking you are the only capable person is over confidence. |
