Confidence means you know what is your weakness and you know that trying and trying, again and again, you can change your weakness in your strength.

Overconfidence means that you are sure that you have no negativities and it"s fact that you will win, no. The matter you are putting your right effort in that direction or not.

Doing any task and anything in a good manner and passionately using all available surrounding resources is confidence. Doing things in an imaginary way without any knowledge any planning is called overconfidence.

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.
