Confidence is when I say " I'm Suitable for this Job " and overconfidence is when I say " I'm the only one suitable for this job".

Confidence does good to you, Overconfidence harms you without you even knowing that.

CONFIDENCE - Shows knowledge.

OVER CONFIDENCE - Shows fake attitude.

For example;

If I say I am suitable for this job it's my confidence and If I say I am the only one Suitable for this job it's my overconfidence.

I can do this work easily it's my confident But no other can't do this work easily by me it's my over confident.

Confidence : Confidence is based on experience and good knowledge that help us to do work in every field perfectly.

Overconfidence is always create a problem for future and its based on less knowledge and attitude.

Sir, there is a slight difference between confidence and over confidence, I'll explain with an example.

Confidence: I am fit for this job.

Over confidence: I am the only person who is fit for this job.

Thank you.

A man, who's confident about himself doesn't boast about his success and he learns from his failures. While, an over confident man doesn't accept his failures and put blame over some other reason for not succeeding.

There is a thin line b/w confidence and overconfidence. I can solve that problems mean you are confident and only I can solve that problem means you are overconfident and overconfident is harmful to our personality.

Sir, I think 'confidence' is when you have a goal, you work hard for that and believe that I can do it.

But when you do nothing for your goal and still believe that I can do it then this is called 'overconfidence'.

Confidence is a slight difference between confidence and overconfidence. So confidence means believing itself.

Like I can do this word it's confidence.

And I can only do this word it's a overconfidence. And so on.

Confidence means having a belief in oneself and believing in the things that we are doing is correct.

Where in, overconfidence is writing the exam without preparation with the great hope of getting a 100% outcome.
