Confidence is something that makes you believe that you can do a particular thing whereas when overconfidence comes into play it makes you believe that only you can do a particular thing & no one else is capable as you are.

Confidence is a realistic, pragmatic, and honest belief in one's ability to perform a task, rooted in facts and experience.

In contrast, overconfidence is a false, narcissistic, and egotistical belief in one's exaggerated abilities, often detached from reality.

Firstly, I would like to thanks for asking this question.

Confidence is nothing but what we have belief and I can do purpose of only for self not for others.

Overconfidence means doubting themselves only without knowing thir strengths & weakness they only think I will do like that.

Confidence is a realistic belief in one's abilities, leading to careful and informed actions.
Overconfidence is an exaggerated sense of ability, often resulting in reckless decisions and mistakes.

Confidence embraces caution; overconfidence dismisses it.

Confidence-is self-belief.

Overconfidence means that you are talented and lack skills and knowledge and you feel that you crack interviews easily that is overconfidence.
