Overconfidence is a cognitive bias that affects the way we perceive our abilities, knowledge, and future outcomes. It leads individuals to overestimate their competence and the precision of their knowledge, often resulting in flawed decision-making. At its core, overconfidence is an inflated sense of self-assurance that distorts reality. While a certain level of confidence is essential for success, excessive confidence can cloud judgment and lead to risky choices.

The overconfidence bias has been widely studied in psychology, with researchers highlighting its profound impact on decision-making processes. One of the primary reasons for overconfidence is the human tendency to focus on positive outcomes while downplaying potential risks or failures. People who are overconfident tend to believe they have more control over situations than they actually do, leading them to take on challenges that they are not fully prepared for. This overestimation of abilities can be seen in various domains, from personal life to professional settings, where individuals frequently believe they know more or can perform tasks better than they truly can.

Overconfidence is not just about the belief that one can succeed in a particular task or scenario; it also involves an overestimation of how much one knows. For instance, individuals may feel confident in their knowledge of a topic but may be unaware of the gaps in their understanding. This phenomenon is particularly noticeable in fields such as finance, medicine, and law, where professionals often make critical decisions based on incomplete or flawed information, assuming their knowledge is comprehensive. Overconfidence can also manifest in the form of the "illusion of control," where individuals believe they can influence outcomes that are largely governed by chance.
