Sir, for me there is a fine difference between confidence and overconfidence as I face it practically in my life. Confidence is accompanied to the belief of an individual where the confidence shows a part of the persons ego and lack of self-evaluation.

As for showing the difference with the help of the statement.

"I am sure that I get this job" shows confidence".

"I am super sure that I get this job" shows some overconfidence.

When someone says- "I can do this work" that's confidence.

" I trust that I can't go wrong while doing this work" that's over confidence.

Confidence means : Feeling that you are sure about your capability, opinion and work based on your continuous past experiences and work.

Over-confidence means: An individual who thinks they are much smarter than they actually.

"Only" word is the difference between conference and overconfidence.

According to me, There are three types of answers.


Confidence-I can do this work, this is my confidence.

Only I can do this work this is my overconfidence.


2 => I am going to give my best in the interview this is my confidence,

But the interviewer will definitely hire me this is my overconfidence.

3 => I am best for your company this is my confidence.

But I only the best for your company this is my overconfidence.

Thank you.
