Confidence is not only towards the success but also towards the failures.
Means confidence =faith +afraid of failures.

Whereas overconfidence never cares about your failures it only thinks about success.
Means overconfidence =Confidence +negligence.

According to me confidence means having a belief on your hard work which is reflected by an attitude I can do this.

And overcofidence is underestimating others with an attitude only I can do this.

Confidence is when you commit that you can do that work in the given time and you do it.

Over Confidence is when you say a lot about yourself and you show nothing.

Confidence is something that makes you believe that you can do a particular thing whereas when overconfidence comes into play it makes you believe that only you can do a particular thing & no one else is capable as you are.

Confidence is when I believe I can achieve something because I have prepared for it, and I know my strengths.
Overconfidence occurs when I assume I can achieve something without proper preparation and ignore my limitations. Although I believe confidence builds careers, overconfidence can also destroy opportunities. So, I choose to stay grounded and keep learning.
