I think you gave an excellent response to the question. Take a look below, maybe it will help to clarify your definition further:
The Canadian Association of OTs describes it thus: "Occupation is EVERYTHING people do to occupy themselves, including looking after themselves (self-care), enjoying life (leisure), and contributing to the social and economic fabric of their communities (productivity)". (Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists, 1997). The role of the Occupational Therapist is to ENABLE people to choose, organize and perform those occupations they find useful or meaningful in their environment/lives.
