Confidence
Self-confidence is generally perceived as having the courage to talk in front of a large number of people, the willingness to try something new, the willingness to go against what others are thinking or doing, the ability to comfortably do something one thought he could not do and/or the willingness to explore what has not been explored. One who is self-confident is not necessarily loud and brash, or always ready to do reckless things in front of other people.
Losing confidence
Losing confidence is no longer trusting in the ability to perform. It may be reasonable as the result of past failure to perform, or unreasonable, because one "just has a feeling" about something.Choking refers to losing confidence, especially self-confidence, just at the moment when it is needed most and doing poorly as a result e.g. in sports. This is found as a common plot device in literature and film, and is usually devised to result in a total alteration of a character's life.
