May be for a number of reasons; for example anxiety from personal experience I have experienced lack of sleep for this reason. However there may be a number of other reasons which could impact level of sleeping at night. Which could link to eating habits, whether you nap in the day (due to missing sleep in the night making it harder to reestablish a normal sleeping pattern), working hours etc.

You may have unresolved problems or use your mind as a "memo pad." We tend to remind ourselves to do things, making our minds overly aware of the task being incomplete. Having unresolved problems leads to anxiety and can cause difficulty sleeping.

Maybe your mind is thinking to much and it won't allow you to sleep. Sometimes when your mind is over thinking is causes the brain to stay awake. Try to listen to music, or read before bed. That sometimes helps cause the brain to stop thinking so much.

Maybe you don't have a good bed time ritual. Try less caffeine before bed or no naps after a certain time!

Maybe insomnia, that would be something you should discuss with your doctor, or therapist, because no one knows you like you.

Your brain could be thinking of something or your subconsiousness might be replaying certain episode

Some say it is the subconscious that keeps you awake. Work out your problems and you shall sleep. However more practical answers are to cut down on caffeine, paint your room blue (doctors say this helps you sleep) or to maintain a regular sleeping pattern, so your body clock adjusts.

There is no one answer to this question. For some people, anxieties or excitement is what causes sleep troubles. For others, it could be from using phones and computers right before going to bed, literally tricking the brain into thinking it's still day time, preventing the release of sleep chemicals. The best way to sought out the answer to this question is to record what you do during the day, for example; how much time you spend on a computer etc. Then seek the help of a doctor to narrow down the cause
