Installing Nvidia Drivers from run file

Installing Nvidia Drivers from run file

So I downloaded a Nvidia graphics driver in a form of a .run file, but when i try to install it with terminal, it gives me the error: You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before installing. For further details, please see the section INSTALLING THE NVIDIA DRIVER in the README available on the Linux driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
How should I install the drivers? These are the commands that I used in terminal:
cd /home/jason
sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-319.23.run
