I guess knowing yourself is the key here. It's important to know your limits, but it's equally (or more) important to push or test them from time to time. Developing an over-confident approach to life brings with it its own limitations. The key is to honestly and objectively know yourself without the overly subjective ego getting in the way with its own value judgements.
Much easier said than done.
It's also possible to be humble without being negative on yourself. Quietly confident people are able to exude competence without having to shout it from the rooftops, but are also capable of laughing at their own absurdities whenever they surface.
