Here's a link to a video by Paralee that makes it very clear to me. Hope it helps:
por and para video prototype explanation link
There is also a lesson on one of the videos in this site on por and para, a grammar lesson on this under Learn -> Spanish grammar -> por & para, and then you can also type in "por and para" into the little search box under "ask a question" and there are multiple threads of other learners that have asked the same question. You can get some great answers there.

Cheers katy. The 40 question quiz on this link was tough and worth it. Gracias por todo! - CoolAir, May 27, 2013

Por vs. Para can be confusing. Personally I think it just takes practice. There are some fixed expressions with the two, but besides that I kind of just had to memorize the different uses and practice them to make it more concrete in my head.
