Confidence comes when you are intelligent and strong in your content.

Overconfidence comes when you are very much interested and very thorough in your subjects.

Confidence always provides us with knowledge and positive wave but overconfidence always messed your work abilities. For example, I can do this work this is confidence and I am only a person who can do this work this is the overconfidence.

Confidence means I can do this work.

But overconfidence means only I can do this work.

So, according to me, In overconfidence, capital I indicate Ego and whenever we take ego all works and life can fails.

Confidence meant for the correct knowledge you have and overconfidence means you even don't want to listen the facts and not willing to gain more knowledge about the particular thing, you start thinking that the knowledge you have is sufficient and 100 percent correct without listening anyone or ignoring the facts.

In my opinion, Confidence is a strong belief on your knowledge, strategy, and capability to work hard and make that thing happen. They don't think about other's judgment.

Overconfidence on the other hand no research, no tendency to learn more, and planning and strategizing only based on the current knowledge that they had. They are unable to foresee the challenges. And hence in the end fail to accomplish the goal. They do think about other people and work accordingly.

Sir/mam, there is my example that shows the difference between confidence & overconfident. For example, if I say I am the only one suitable for this job it's my confidence.

If I say I am the only one suitable for this job it's my overconfident.

Confidence shows knowledge & it is task-oriented.

Overconfidence shows a fake attitude and it is ego-oriented.

Confidence gives you enough strength to explain yourself- either speak/or write way abilities within yourself.

& Overconfidence proves your disabilities in different ways like not going through without any type of interruption. Every time difficulty came in it way and is unsuccessful in finding out-solution to it.
