Confidence implies believing in yourself that "I can do it. " but at the same time not losing any chance to improve on yourself, taking advice from appropriate sources and persons and hard work towards one's goal. On the other hand, over confidence makes one believe that they are on the peak and can never fall. They think that there's nothing more to improve on yourself. That's where over-confidence results in fall.
There exists a very slight boundary between the two but its plays one of the most vital roles in deciding one's future!

'Confidence' shows the attitude of a person who thoroughly believes, "No pain, no gain. " On the contrary, 'Over confidence' is an attitude of a person that he won't drown in the sea of reality undoubtedly even when he does not know how to swim.

Confidence: If you are trying to achieve something, you know you can and still working hard to achieve it. It's confidence.
Over-confidence. If you say you can achieve your goal but not working hard enough then it's over confidence.
