The way to tell the difference between narcissism and confidence is to see how it affects other people. Narcissism, by definition, needs to diminish others in order to maintain a sense of comfort and security. Confidence is a comfort and security regardless of what others say or do.
Confidence is not expressed through bravado but rather vulnerability. A confident person does not feel a need to prove that they are right—rather, they are simply comfortable in the fact that they may be wrong.
