haha i love this topic. there's so many hilarious stats on how overconfident we are in tons of areas. most of us think we're above average drivers, most doctors think they're above average surgeons, most professors think they're above average pencil pushers (or whatever they claim to do).

Yeah, it’s hilarious how we think we’re more awesome than we really are. I think it’s better than crippling self-doubt though.
It's important to keep the three "O's" in check. I think being overconfident is helpful in certain contexts but hindering (even dangerous) in others.
Agreed. But if we were to err on one side, it’s better to be overconfident than not believing enough in yourself.
Belief in yourself takes priority, it gives you the confidence to test the waters of what you may perceive to be the impossible.
