Living life to the full is a call from God. Which is the same as Vocation is intended. God has given you a particular vocation, he wants you to live the full out of it in your own life. He wants you to perform the vocations through your whole life, not a single short stage.
a vocation is a call to a way of life
Different ways you can choose to live your life in glory to God
Laypeople live out their vocation through their everyday actions, such as being kind and compassionate to others, upholding moral values, volunteering, and working diligently in their chosen profession. They can also live out their vocation within their families, by fostering love, unity, and support amongst their loved ones. Ultimately, living out one's vocation as a layperson involves striving to be a positive influence in society and reflecting the values of their faith in all aspects of life.
Although he was born in Portugal, Anthony lived out his vocation in Italy.
A vocation is what one is called to do with one's life. The Blessed Virgin received her vocation directly from God through the Archangel when he asked her if she would give birth to God. So her vocation was to be the Mother of God.

I'm unsure as to how this specifically might relate to a religious question, but "vocation" is basically another word for "career" or "job." So, anyone who has ever had a job could be said to have had a "vocation." In the Catholic church "vocation" also refers to those who take a religious life - monks and nuns. Such a life is said to be their calling.
Holy Orders is considered a sacrament involving a vocation since one must be "called" to receive it and not everyone is. The calling or vocation involves the desire to pursue holy orders as well as the Church's invitation to receive them. Since Holy Orders dictates an entire way of life, that is, that once received you are expected to live the life of a religious in the service of God, the sacrament is life-altering event, a vocation.
Vocation in religion refers to a calling or purpose that individuals believe they have been given by a higher power. It plays a significant role in shaping one's spiritual journey and purpose in life by guiding them towards fulfilling their divine purpose and contributing to the greater good. This sense of vocation can provide a sense of direction, meaning, and fulfillment in one's life, helping them to live in alignment with their beliefs and values.
Vocation is a life choice. Holy Orders - when one enters into a life as a member of a holy order - priests, nuns, brothers etc. Sacrament of Marriage - when two people get married within the Church. Single life - another vocation though not sacramental. This is when someone makes the conscious decision to lead and single life within the Church.
To live a Spartan life is to live life full of risk and courage and to never back down.
To have a vocation is to have a specific "calling" or disposition towards the religious life. This means that God has granted the soul the grace of a vocation, or the invitation to intimately participate in ministry of His Church or to live, pray and work closer to Himself by living a life that is removed from the world. A vocation to the priesthood is a specific calling a young man feels to enter a seminary in order to train to become a priest. This calling may be simply a desire to serve as a priest, an intellectual resolution based on self evaluation, a religious experience (though these are rare and not to be looked for), or a recommendation by a parish priest or retreat master. A vocation to the priesthood is confirmed when the candidate enters the religious state and when the Church calls him to approach for ordination.
