This is good advice. I used to really push how late I'd stay up and then get jolted awake by my alarm. Felt like trash.
Now I go to bed like 9.5 hours before I have to get up (midnight -> 930) and usually wake up before the alarm. Feels great.
I set alarms for my bedtime to train myself into it. Like, alarm goes off at 11pm and I start winding down whatever I'm doing (video games, usually). Now I just do it naturally.
But as you said, how do you actually do the thing?
I've luckily never had problems with executive function, so I can't really imagine clearly what it's like to not be able to just make a decision and execute. One of my friends swears by medication, because they got diagnosed as an adult with ADHD.
