Not everybody needs a 8.0 hours of sleep, I know a lot of people say "well I need five hours of sleep"... if you're going your daydreaming or if you are having trouble focusing you are not getting enough sleep.
Those are about seven ways to help you sleep better at night.
#1 most important stop all caffeine consumption; it has long half-life! although you might be able to fall asleep at 10 PM because you get tired when you wake up to go to the bathroom, caffeine is still running around in your system and because your least tired at that point you will have trouble getting back to sleep.
#2 exercise every single day; tired people sleep better, in my opinion high intensity cardio is better than weight but weight is great also just make sure you exercise every day.
#3 no big meals before bedtime, if you want a big dinner you should eat it earlier, if you're doing intermittent fasting make sure your big meals are earlier in the day rather than right before bedtime, your last meal should be small.
#4 avoid stress before bedtime; the main reasons people have trouble sleeping is that stressed they go to bed and the mind starts racing through all the things are angry about, all the things that their silent about, things they didn't get done, do not do things in the last few hours of the day that are to be fresh in your mind when you go to sleep, so you know if you're having financial troubles, of the bad time to go through the bills, is a bad time to have an argument, is a bad time to watch the news if you get riled up about that you things that raise your blood pressure don't do those before bedtime.
#5 is related to that I hesitate to use the word meditation; because for a lot of people it has a bad connotation to the meditation meditation as applying the same physical disciplines that we used were buying when we train for sports and lifting weights applying that same this discipline to the brain most, of us have no control over where race doing but with a little practice you can and does a great technique ; just focus on breathing and any thoughts that come in your mind constantly push them away it.
#6 you are not the "a lot get rid of your alarm clock icon" but the alarm clock is waking you up; you are sleep deprived you would wake up without alarm clock if you had enough sleep, so if you want to sleep better you have to sleep longer and you say "well I don't have time for that"...? you know why you go to bed at midnight last night you have did you really have to see Letterman, did you really have to be on Facebook for an hour? you chose to do those things instead of sleep, so what I would recommend is; when you get home from work you make your meal, put the kids to bed and yourself too.. all the things that you want to do, doing watch shows when you wake up in the morning if you have time before you go to work you can do them, that if not the sleep was more important anyway.
