you can start by setting a sleeping time and waking time of enough sleeping hours. when you go to bed, try some soft music or even soft natural sounds ( there are many apps for than on android and apple stores, contact me if u need some recommendations ), you can also try having a glass of milk before sleeping.
the room should be dark enough and quiet so nothing can interrupt your sleep, and always go to sleep with the idea that sleeping will wash off all of today's stresses and the morning will be brighter.

First step is to do away with any and all distractions. Keep cell phones, laptops, and/or tablets out of the bedroom.
Second step is to set a schedule and stick to it. Give yourself a bed time, and set a time to wake up. Keep to this schedule, even on days off from work/school.
Those two things probably helped me more than anything else.

The first thing to do is make sure that any sleep you will get from now on, is quality sleep. Once you've got your quality sleep, go to bed at a sensible time, and when you wake up, get out of bed, and start your day. Even if you feel tired, don't go to bed until the evening, when you would normally go to bed. Keep doing this and eventually you will get back into a schedule.

You can try reading a book before bed, and put technologies aside :) Also, don't take naps during the day, because that can make you not sleepy when you go to bed later on. Even if you are tired, you can wait until a early bedtime to go to sleep :)

If you can isolate the root causes of your inconsistent sleep cycle, you can start to address them.

The most important thing is to go to sleep at the same time every evening and wake up the same time every morning. You can drink a cup of warm tea or milk before you go to sleep, or read a bit. These are very helpful things.

Be sure to get some sort of exercise during the day. Avoid naps. And get at least 8 hours of sleep.

Try going to bed at the same time each night. Avoid caffeine in the late afternoon and before bed. Try meditating or doing breathing exercises or maybe even relaxing yoga. The most important thing is to be consistent! If you have serious trouble falling or staying asleep you might want to see your doctor who might prescribe you sleeping pills if your problem is serious enough. Good luck friend!

Wake up early, regularly. Sleep at the right time, set yourself a time when you need to sleep and wake up. Get your 8 hours of sleep and it'll then become a habit.

Find a way to get yourself tired by the time you want to be asleep. This may be working out, or even doing small chores that you wouldn't originally do.
