Time management? If you're a gamer then you can kill a certain mob, calculate how long it takes you to kill it, and divide the xp you gain from that kill by the time it took you to get it, then go elsewhere and kill something else, divide that mob by the time, break it down into xp/second or minute or hour or what ever, and see where your time will be better spent if your main goal is gaining experience.
