Do not drink caffeine if you can possibly avoid it. If you NEED it, only in the morning.

Make sure your meal schedule is reasonable. Don't eat past 7pm.

Don't nap during the day.

Don't look at a TV, Computer, or anything else very bright for a half an hour or so before trying to sleep.

Make sure you are comfortable in your bed.

Try counting. Just keep counting. To 5000, if you have to. If you make it to 5000 see a doctor.

Breathe deeply and try to clear your mind before sleeping.

Excercise during the day to release energy.

Some people read in bed and that makes them sleepy.

Hope these tips help.
