Little Mistakes

    Everyone makes mistakes--big ones that makes one embarrassed every time they think about it, and little ones they can shrug off.
    Characters definitely make mistakes too. In the stories they're in, they typically make big mistakes. Huge mistakes that change the course of their life and/or their journey, mistakes that hurt or ruin a relationship with another character. But what about the little mistakes?
    I think that a character should make one or two little mistakes in their story. Something that doesn't make a dramatic change, but isn't completely pointless either. A mistake that causes something, but doesn't have long-lasting consequences. Like running into a wall or misplacing something.
    If used correctly, little mistakes can be used to set a scene or reveal a part of the character or push the plot forward a bit. Like for example, a scene could be opened with the protagonist calling another character by the wrong name. This gives an opportunity to introduce the other character and/or to show that the main character is somewhat distracted with something else on their mind.
    So what do you think? Does your character make little mistakes?
