Confidence: if some problems will occur listening to the problem and I can resolve it that's the confidence.

Over-confidence : without knowing what's the problem he agrees to I can do it.

Everybody have their view of perception based on their experience in life, I want to share my viewpoint on this, be ready to face any kind of situation in unfaithful and having clear thoughts on goals to implement even over distracting from people.

Overconfidence is having less knowledge of situations, behave like immature in the right kind of situation.

Confidence tells our positive attitude and overconfidence tells that over attitude. Confidence in oneself is required to achieve something but overconfidence makes oneself into a different way of approach. Confidence is good for everything but with overconfidence, one can not reach heights.

To my knowledge no one in this world knows everything, so confidence is the one I keep learning to know everything and over confidence is the one I know everything. These things will reflect the positive and negative side of a person.

In my opinion, confidence can take you at higher level.

But overconfidence will bring to ground once a time. If we have overconfidence it will spoils us.

There is a very thin layer between confidence and over confidence. If one thinks that he can do the task and has the ability, it is confidence. But if one thinks that I will be able to do it nothing can stop me and I am the only best that is over confidence.

One should have confidence and not over confidence as it ruins our personality and our relations with our colleagues. Confidence gives us a positive attitude and approach in life which is very important.

Confidence is a belief in one's abilities, qualities, and judgment, which allows an individual to undertake challenges and handle difficult situations. Overconfidence, on the other hand, is an excessive belief in one's abilities, which leads to a tendency to underestimate risks, overestimate outcomes and make decisions without considering all the facts.

Overconfidence can cause a person to act impulsively and without proper planning, potentially leading to negative consequences.
