This is about time management, or the more correct term is personal management (because you are managing where you are during those hours, no matter what you do, you only have 24 hours a day).
Time management is about putting the hours in on your priorities and getting the most of it. Efficiency and effectiveness are cornerstones. Sometimes people get the wrong notion about time management because they tend to do anything to make themselves busy and feel they are managing their time very well. They focus on speed and on quantity, never on the nature of the tasks. They failed to assess early on if those tasks are really necessary. At the end of every day, they feel like they are wise about time management just because of the quantity and speed.
To become truly rich, the right time management should be learned. It is not just about having the most recent and efficient tools, it's about setting priorities clearly and focusing your hours on the things that really matter. Why are you managing time on the first place? To be with your loved ones and to have fun? To accomplish more? To serve more? Time management is all about yourself and where you put yourself at all times.
