What is Overconfidence?
Overconfidence is anexcessive level of assurancethat a person has of his talents and qualities. Unlike self-confidence, which can be viewed as a positive feature, overconfidence is not. It is a negative feature of an individual. Self-confidence allows a person to reach his highest potential, by being open to opportunities and challenges. But overconfidence works as a barrier against a person’s success. This is because when a person is overconfident, he does not see his mistakes and flaws. It creates a façade of the individual as perfect and superior. Unfortunately, this works against the individual, disallowing him to see the reality. When this occurs, the person believes that he needs no practice and can execute without any training or effort. For example, a person can be talented in singing. But if the person is over confident, he would ignore practicing at all, thinking that anyway he is talented. Let us take another example. A student who passes the exam in the first semester thinks that he should not bother much about the second semester since he is good at studies anyway. This is overconfidence. The student does not study much for exams and assumes that he would pass the second semester exams in the same manner. Unfortunately, the student does not pass well. This is the result of overconfidence.
