I sparred for my second time today and I went against the same guy from yesterday. He hit a bit harder, but was still picking out my punches.

I think I coulda been a bit better if I had a stronger and faster jab. So for the next few weeks, during heavy bag session and shadowboxing, I'm going to work on jabs the most. 70% jab 20% straight right 10% left hook.

Is working on the jab on the heavy bag and shadowboxing going to help aid in sheed and power of the punch? I know of course experience and time will help but what else can I do?

What my coach has his boxers do is put on hand weights while your shadow boxing. It has helped us noticably, so you should try that too.

Ok, thanks, I'll try that. Will it work with dumbells too?

Anything that is a weight and forces you to try and work with it should work.
