One of my goals for this year was to go to sleep earlier than I usually go but so far I have no progress on this goal, I have failed miserably 
I usually go to bed after midnight and I end up not sleeping the number of hours that I need to feel well. It is all my fault
at night I end up staying in the sofa seeing series or in the internet and when I realize the time it's already late.
I need to work on this point as I feel it is importante for me, especially now that school is about to start and I will need to wake up earlier.
Any strategies to help me with this? What time do you go to sleep?

I am not the best example. I go to bed when I want. Set up a suitable windows persod and make sure to have all electronics off an hour before bed.

I go to bed 9.30 or 10 pm. Avoid watching the TV and being online before going to bed as that stuffs your brain with things that are exciting your brain cells that disturbs sleep.

I have to sedate myself to go to sleep but I do try to keep a regular bedtime so that my body knows when it is time to go to sleep.

One strategy I use: Eat dinner early (like 4 or 5 pm). This is one reason the elderly infamously eat early.
Another one, watch TV in bed. That way, you can just turn over & fall asleep the moment it dawns on you that you need to.
(you might even use the timer (most TVs have) to turn it off in an hour or half-hour in case you fall asleep while you're watching)

I heard that people who works in night shifts have more trouble to sleep.

Well, I usually try to go to bed between 7 and 9 am... You might not want to go to bed that early, though. 
I hope you figure out something to help you get to bed earlier.

I usually sleep 10 and wake up 6 in the morning. It's 8-hour sleep. And the after lunch I take a nap of 20 minutes or less.

@nela13 You're right. 11 in the evening is good for elderly to take their sleep and wake up 6 or 7 in the morning.

It's a habit you have to make. Switch off the devices and go to bed. If you cannot fall asleep, read a book or listen to some relaxing music.
