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.

When you do practice something you feel very much confident, then you will give your 100 percent. On any task. But when you know that you will do the best among all of them then that is called the over confidence.

According to me, Confidence comes with an equal combination of the ability to do the task and faith in yourself. Whereas Overconfidence is the thing which reflects the lack of ability and excess faith in yourself.

Confidence: Confidence has its limitations of smartness. Eg--I can do it (has a limitation).

Overconfidence: Overconfidence has no limitation. Exp-when I say. Only I can do it (no limitation) its overconfidence.

Doing any task and anything in a good manner and passionately using all available surrounding resources is confidence. Doing things in an imaginary way without any knowledge any planning is called overconfidence.

In my opinion, Confidence is like saying ' I think I am a deserving candidate for the job' whereas someone with overconfidence would say something like 'I think I'm the only best candidate available for the job'.

According to me, confidence comes when you are well prepared and believed in your actions through your hard work.

Overconfidence means Thinking that I am superior to all of them and no one can do better than me.

Confidence: yes I can do it.

Ex: I am feeling confident because I've studied hard for tomorrow's exam!

Overconfidence: surely I can do it.

Ex. I am smart enough to crack tomorrow's exam even if I don't study.
