Confidence means you Believe that you can do a task.

Over confidence means without observing the present situation you just Think that you can do that task.

Hence you can say it imagination.

Confidence comes where you are aware of your strengths and weaknesses, whereas in over confidence, the person is not aware of his strengths and weaknesses and feels he is suitable for the job.

Sir/Mam according to me,

If someone says that I speak English well, then this is confidence.

But if someone says that no one can speak better English than me, then this is overconfidence.
