# Understanding Socras
A Socra is the fundamental building block of socra - an atomic piece of content that can't be broken down further. Socras are designed to be flexible and can be used for any type of goal.
**Examples of Socras** š”
- A single message or thought
- A specific task or action item
- A document or note
- A decision point
- A piece of research
- A conversation thread
- A blog post
Think of Socras like atoms - they're the smallest complete units that combine to build everything else.
### Examples of Atomic Socras š”
Instead of "Learn Spanish" (which would be a Journey), proper Socra examples are:
- "Memorize 20 common Spanish verbs"
- "Research best Spanish learning apps"
- "Schedule first Spanish tutor session"
- "Notes from Spanish class on 01/15"
- "Practice conjugating 'ser' vs 'estar'"
**Settings & Organization** āļø
Each atomic Socra can have:
- Assignee: Who's responsible
- Priority: Importance (1-4)
- Due date: When it needs to be done
- Status: Current state (todo, in-work, complete, etc.)
- Parent: Which Journey it belongs to
- Privacy: Who can see and interact with it
**Inbox Organization** š„
Your Socras automatically organize in your inbox based on their properties:
- **All Tab**: Shows every Socra you have access to
- **Inbox Tab**: Displays Socras with any assigned property (assignee, status, priority, due date)
- **Assigned Tab**: Shows Socras specifically assigned to you
## ā
Step 3: **Creating a New Socra**
1. Ask yourself: "Can this be broken down further?"
- If yes ā Create a Journey instead
- If no ā Perfect for a Socra
2. Keep it focused on ONE specific thing
3. Make it actionable or clearly defined
4. Add relevant properties
5. Start collaborating with socra AI
š” Pro Tip: Assign properties by clicking the settings icon (top right) to organize your work. For example:
- Assign action items to yourself or teammates
- Set priorities for important tasks
- Add due dates for time-sensitive content
- Update status to track progress
