Well! I believe achieving your targets without forecasting it and just keep the target in your mind and believe that you can do is confidence.

Whereas only talking about the success and thinking about the steps but not working hard to achieve the target is overconfidence?

Confidence - I can suitable for this job.
Overconfidence - only I can do this job.

Confidence - believing in your selves and hard working to reach your achievement.
Overconfidence - not knowing anything about it, ignoring facts and just going on to reach your achievement.

Confidence is when we feel sure about our actions and make the right decisions.

We believe in our ability to do something and have faith in ourselves.

On the other hand, overconfidence is excessive belief in our abilities, overlooking the fact that we can be wrong too.

Confidence'' is the good trait to have where a person is sure about his course of action or activity and it comes from past success and right decisions. ''Overconfidence'' is excessive belief in their own abilities ignoring the fact that their decision can be wrong too.

Confidence means knowing you can do it attitude still working on a contingency plan if things won't work according to your wish.

Overconfidence means I will achieve it anyhow, nothing will go wrong and will resolve every problem without having plan B if plan A fails.

Confidence is that something you believe in yourself too, i.e. I can do it in a secure way, not an arrogant way.

While overconfidence is that in the person misjudge our skills, values and opinion simple we can say that " only I can do it " no other people can do it.
