I'm not sure where it should be set so that the clutch cable isn't putting pressure on it when I'm not grabbing the clutch lever

I drove it today, and I can feel a lot of resistance to movement when trying to put it in each gear. It doesn't want to shift to the next gear easily now. I think the clutch does need to be adjusted because it's no longer pulling the clutch in far enough to disengage

I ordered a new clutch cable so hopefully that fixes it
Chances are it's just about ready to snap.

Sounds like a new cable should cure the problem.
