Walter Mitty isn't exactly a flawless, heroic figure. He's quite forgetful, he's a bad driver, he gets bossed around by his wife a lot, and he's not good at mechanical things. In order to see himself and the events of his life as more exciting, Walter Mitty daydreams that he is a heroic alpha male that is in control of incredibly tense situations. He imagines himself as an ace pilot, a world renowned surgeon, and a phenomenal lawyer. In each case, Mitty is the heroic figure. He is the center of attention. Everybody depends on him, and his success is beneficial to everybody around him. That's not how Mitty's real life is. His fantasies are his way of escaping his real life realities.
