Confidence makes people think I can do it.

Meanwhile, overconfidence: I only can do better than others.

When the person says "I can do it. " It is known as confidence and when the person says "Only I can do it. " this is known as overconfidence.

1. Having faith in yourself is confidence and having blind faith in yourself is overconfidence.

2. Planning the strategy and implementing it to the work is confidence and thinking that no planning is required to do the work is overconfidence.

There is a thin line between confidence and overconfidence.

Confidence is self-belief, which says, "I can do this work" but Overconfidence underestimates others and says, "Only, I can do this work. ".
