1. Inaccurate Judgement
We all like to evaluate ourselves at some point; some people do it frequently (like me), and some people do it very rarely. The point is that since I'm always too confident, I don't bother questioning myself, or checking myself, which later leads to mistakes, embarrassment, or complete failures. The higher you rise, the further you fall!
To avoid that, always ask for other people's objective opinions, and try to look at yourself from the side. Also, I encourage you to learn more on a certain topic before you insist that you are 100% sure that you are making the right decision. Don't be very dependant on people's opinions, though. But respect them, and keep them in mind.
2. Nobody Likes Overconfident People
Even if you are a nice person, and do not, generally, have bad intentions, others will dislike you for not being considerate enough, because you always feel like you're right. Again, always consider other people's opinions and even if you will end up being right, don't throw a party about it! :)
3. Hard Time to Get Back on Track
So once you HAVE realized that you haven't been judging your behaviour and attitude objectively and accurately, you have to get back to earth. And yes, it will be upsetting. But, there's nothing wrong. It's just the reality. Generally, the way it's going to go is that you will meet a person or enhance in a society, which will disprove you (validly) every time you are being overconfident. Then, you start questioning yourself, maybe even thinking that you're broken (it's not the case,though!), and you finally (hopefully), understand that you can only succeed in reality, not in "I'm always right" world.
4. Get Stronger
If you understand that the reality is not made to break you, you will start making your way up again, but this time you will be much more educated and objective about everything - and you will become stronger!
Good luck!
