Confidence meant for the correct knowledge you have and overconfidence means you even don't want to listen the facts and not willing to gain more knowledge about the particular thing, you start thinking that the knowledge you have is sufficient and 100 percent correct without listening anyone or ignoring the facts.

Confidences mean a person can share knowledge and information free to a person without any problems and mental pressure.

Overconfidence means a person gives fake knowledge and information may hide the secret or any information and lies to give information.

Confidence is a good trait to have where a person is sure about his course or activity and it comes from past success and rights decisions.

Overconfidence is the excessive belief in their own abilities ignoring the fact that their decision can be wrong too.

The difference between confidence and over-confidence in what we believe in any task. That is;

If we are sure about a task or action or activity result with past experience and right decisions, it is confidence.

Although aiming for the same but without considering the facts, it is over confidence.

Thank you mam/sir.
