Confidence is when you're sure about something, for example, being able to solve a coding problem.

Over-confidence carries an air of arrogance and stupidity. It's when you're excessively confident about something; for example, thinking you can crack an extremely tough paper in one go, even though you don't have sufficient knowledge/skills required for clearing that paper.

If I'm saying that "I can do it", it's my confidence.

If I'm saying that "only I can do it ", is my overconfidence.

Estimating, about the work which is ought to do and performing in the right time in the right manner is confidence.

Overconfidence means thinking that I am the best and no one can do this work without me.

Confidence is based on the facts and figures and overconfidence is based on speculation.

First we analyze that work, then decided we can do that work this is confidence. Without analyzing that work then decide we can do that work is overconfidence.
