In my opinion, if one person appointed a work for us if we say like we can do its nothing but confidence if we say only we are the people who can do this work called overconfidence.

Confidence is being honest ourself and other while not comparing others.

Overconfidence is a lie to ourself and underestimating other.

Confidence is that I can do any work which you will assign.

Overconfidence only I can do this work and no one can do this work so that is the over-confidence.

"Confidence" is that 'coming to a conclusion with positive perception duly calculating various factors behind in mind whereas "Over-confidence" is coming to a conclusion without calculations and vague insight at the object.

There is very thin line between confidence and over confidence.

I can do this work is confidence.

Only I can do this work is over confidence.

Confidence is being keen not only towards the success but also towards failures, and confidence allows to overcome failure.

Whereas overconfidence never care about your failures it only thinks about success and makes you feel that it's not level of mine and initiates negligence.

In a way, confidence+negligence = Over Confidence.

Confidence=faith+afraid of failures.
