Balance is the second part of turning. Keep your inside foot high up and away from the ground, at 12 o'clock, with knee bent and pointing toward the turn. Sit firmly on the saddle and ride with hands in the drops, fingers ready on the brake levers. Focus on pushing down hard on the outer pedal, which will naturally keep your weight balanced over the bicycle. The lower the lean, the faster the turn, but watch carefully for road conditions - wet roads, gravel and sand should factor in how far over you lean.
Direction is the final point.
On your approach, aim towards the apex of the turn. The goal is to ride as straight a line as possible through turns, which keeps the ride smooth and doesn't slow down your momentum. You may never have a need, or be brave enough, to corner like Il Falco, but smooth cornering skills make descents and turns all the more fun.
