Sir, confidence is something that boosts us up in every critical situation that yes I can. And overconfidence is the thing that creates a superiority complex in us that I am above all.

According to me, confidence is something with which you boldly or fearlessly face or tackle a situation.

And over-confidence is tackling a situation without proper knowledge about it.

According to me, confidence means positive thinking, Example: I can do that given work on time.

And Overconfidence means over positive thinking, eg: no one can do this task except me.

Confidence is something when you have trust in yourself and you make sure the task will be done.

Overconfidence means when you overvalue yourself and consider others not equal to you.

Their is a slight difference between confidence and over confidence. When I say, I can do this work that is confidence and when I say, only I can do this work that is over confidence.

Hi Sir/Madam,

Confidence: That comes from gaining knowledge.

Over Confidence : It comes with half knowledge, that only he knows the knowledge and he only can do the work perfectly.

I personally feel that slight difference in confidence and overconfidence that first believes oneself as capable and latter is to believe oneself as best and other less.

That's all.

Confidence means knowing ourselves what is what, coming to over confidence believing the things will happen which are not practically not possible.

But over confidence is dangerous.
