preventing leg noballs

I am a fast bowler, when I was a kid I used to see the bowling crease and pop then and until then now I am continuing in the same way. How can I bowl without seeing the popping crease & concentrating on batsmen?

The heading to the question and your actual question don`t seem to match. Are you having trouble with balls going down the leg side or are you overstepping the popping crease?
