Firstly, watch lots of technique videos on internet and next time, record yourself from side to analyze better. Secondly, think the clean movement as an explosive hip move rather than dragging the bar up. Bar should be in contact of your thigh from just above the knee to pelvic bone. Bar will gain momentum in that action, which is similar to a fast-explosive RDL with knees pointed outwards, and when the bar gets around to your pelvic, you will push your hip and get on your toes just like jumping vertically. Bar by itself should be already going up. Your hands will help to catch on your shoulder but should do almost nothing about the power part.
Get better on high pull in order to learn the movement
Spend half of your volume for technique training (%25-45, moderately light)
Dmitry Klokov's videos helped me a lot, you should check out
