Vocation is who you are, occupation is what you do. We are all occupied in the pursuit of livelihood. We earn money to support our needs. Vocation however, is usually misunderstood as synonymous to occupation, but could not be more different. My vocation is the inclination to the volume of my existence; as if a response to a summons. 'Entrepreneur" is my vocation it is the volume of my existence, I may never have earned the first dollar from my vocation but never the less I have been summoned to this position.
Never let others shade the diversity in your occupation and vocation, be clear in whom you are by what you do. My avocation is revealed, do you see it? Avocation differs from vocation in that it gives pleasure a hobby as it were.
