It couldn't be more self-evident: stop doing things and go to bed with enough time to sleep your amount. Anyone can do it any evening.
The challenge isn't how to sleep but how to prioritize your life to avoid distraction from encroaching in that time. That's a matter of examining your life, figuring out your values, and learning to act on them.
If you prioritize other things and sleep less, fine, you prioritize other things and sleep less, but don't say the way to a good night's sleep is hard if you chose not to turn off your computer.

My sleep became sort-of-normal with early morning D3 supplementation and significant protein supplementation. YMMV. Gary Taubes in some interview gave the example (from memory) "The simple, self evident way to make a restaurant popular, is to get people to eat there". And it's true!
