Confidence is something when you do care about your result and puts 100% effort to make it best but in over confidence's case you don't care about the result although might be possible to not to put any effort because of over assurance to that matter. In other words, confidence is what when you make a rough path in a walkable path and in over-confidence, you make a rough path into a slippery (over smooth) path.

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 is a path to sucess but over confidence pulls ourself to the failure. Confidence come when we trust ourself and overconfidence come when we underestimate ourself and acheive something great.
