Step-by-step explanation:

A call, summons, or impulsion to perform a certain function or enter a certain career, esp. a religious one. Vocation is defined as a call to do something, especially regarding religious work. The woman's desire to become a nun is an example of vocation. a strong impulse or inclination to follow a particular activity or career. a divine call to God's service or to the Christian life. a function or station in life to which one is called by God: the religious vocation; the vocation of marriage. There are many different types of vocations in today's society. The three significant vocations are, single life, married life, and religious life. Single life is one of the three types of vocation. Definition of Vocation and Career: Vocation is what you strive to do in your life. It is the career you want to be in. Career, on the other hand, is a series of jobs, even change of professions, in a lifetime of an individual. Vocation is literally your "calling", what you are good for or destined for. It usually is a property/talent/predisposition of your person. A mission, in contrast, is a particular task given to you. Even if you are on "a mission from God", there may be retirement from it eventually.
