Avocation

An avocation is an activity that one engages in as a hobby outside one's main occupation. There are many examples of people whose professions were the ways that they made their livings, but for whom their activities outside of their workplaces were their true passions in life. Occasionally, as with Lord Baden-Powell and others, a person who pursues an avocation is more remembered by history for their avocation than for their professional career.
Many times a person's regular vocation may lead to their avocation. Many forms of humanitarian campaigning, such as work for organizations such as Amnesty International and Greenpeace may be done by people involved in the law or human rights issues as part of their work.〔Boyd, B. (20 October 2006). A secret history of the old Ball game. ''Irish Times''. Retrieved 4 July 2007, from http://www.irishtimes.com/theticket/articles/2006/1020/1160606784745.html〕
Many people involved with youth work pursue this as an avocation.
