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 the good trait to have where a person is sure about his course of action or activity and it comes from past success and right decisions.

Overconfidence is excessive belief in their own abilities ignoring the fact that their decision can be wrong too.

Knowing your weakness is confidence.

Knowing and boasting your goodness is overconfidence.

Confidence literally means reality. We don't need to talk, the result of our work will give the answer to every question.

Over confidence is virtuality. We imagine more than what really happens and overtalks about everything.

Confidence is when you commit that you can do that work in the given time and you do it.

Over Confidence is when you say a lot about yourself and you show nothing.

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.
