Confidence :-.

Shows your skills, positive attitude, knowledge and much more.

Then we are talking about overconfidence :

Always shows your weak points like your fake attitude, your surplus energy, your fake personality, and many more.

So, these are common differences in confidence and overconfidence.

Sir/mam, there is my example that shows the difference between confidence & overconfident. For example, if I say I am the only one suitable for this job it's my confidence.

If I say I am the only one suitable for this job it's my overconfident.

Confidence shows knowledge & it is task-oriented.

Overconfidence shows a fake attitude and it is ego-oriented.
