Sir.

Confidence is when you have a goal. You work hard for that and believe that. I can do it. But when you do nothing for your goal. And still, believe that. I can do it then this is celled over confidence.

Difference is just that "over". When there is no ego for achieving and thinking I will and I can do that then it is confidence otherwise over confidence.

If I have believe that I can do, that one is confidence.

When I will say that its very easy, I can do this without believe. That's one is overconfidence.

Confidence is generally described as a state of being certain either that a hypothesis or prediction is correct or that a chosen course of action is the best or most effective. Self-confidence is having confidence in one's self.

The overconfidence effect is a well-established bias in which a person's subjective confidence in his or her judgments is reliably greater than the objective accuracy of those judgements, especially when confidence is relatively high. Overconfidence is one example of a miscalibration of subjective probabilities.
