Confidence : it means that I have knowledge about my work and I can say confidently that I can do this work.

Over confidence : it means the person didn't have any knowledge about their work and still that person is saying that I can do this work.

Confidence is yes I can do this.
Over confidence is I am the only person who can do this.

In other words,

Confident people may say I will achieve my goal one day.
But overconfident people may say I will definitely achieve my goal.
