What is the line between confidence and arrogance/narcissism?

Seems like a lot of people are told to be more confident, but I see a lot of shows of confidence being met with accusations of narcissism and arrogance. How can you be confident without taking it too far? What's the perfect amount of confidence?

Confidence is a complete charade ...but it is helpful to display it to earn trust in your abilities ..

A truly confident person is not only limited to what they know , but always has the confidence to understand there own limitations and to look for answers from others ,,

When you want to have faith in someone with confidence , its best to recognize that they are seeking answers abd not just providing them ... That separates the people with true intelligence from the ones that are arrogant or narcissists ... Those individuals never take the opportunity to listen , and will only spew or reconfigure to match their own limited dogma ..

Man .. Sometimes , I get much too serious on SW ... my apologies
