Try finding professional games that have the same shapes your struggling with :).

If your opponent takes territory, perhaps you could take influence. Or strength. Or something else just as valuable in different form.
On Go proverbs:
"A fine Gotation is a diamond in the hand of a dan of wit and a pebble in the hand of a kyu" —Joseph Raux misquoted.
