Having kids forces the issue for me - they demand attention - but aside from that the biggest thing for me is not touching the computer. I'll browse things on my phone, but try to shut that down by an hour or so before bed too and only read things either in paper or kindle.

The other thing that can help is at the end of the day jotting down notes to myself about anything unfinished... this lets me let go of them and know I won't forget to do them in the morning. I'm not as consistent about doing this as I'd like but when I do it helps tremendously.
