Yes, Loosen the clutch cable end and push the arm over a bit more then re-tighten. Or- turn your cable adjuster out at the lever to take up some slack in the cable.

It sounds like your clutch is not completely disengaging when you pull the clutch lever. Try tightening up the cable on the engine side. In other words remove any slack there is in the cable. Then you should be able to pull the clutch lever and have it completely disengage and it will no longer die or try to move forward.
