Confidence is when we feel sure about our abilities and make the right decisions. It is the feeling when we have faith in ourselves. And on the other hand, over confidence is when we take our abilities in excessive way overlooking the fact that we can be wrong too. So Confidence gives us strength and over confidence weakens.

The difference between confidence and overconfidence is that confidence means the belief in yourself through your hard work. But overconfidence means you are thinking that you are the only person capable to do that work.

Confidence deals with how you should approach a job or task with courage and make sure to complete the task with limited time. But overconfidence sometimes eradicates all the performance as well as job schedule which will give a great impact on your corresponding activities.

So, have proper patience and do not go beyond your confidence level.
