Step 1:  Create a ritual. That doesn’t mean you have to go to the local quickie mart three times a day, it just means that whether you go daily, weekly or monthly, make it a routine. Any break in the routine will completely restart your chances. Don’t be the person who forgets to play your numbers and could have won 10 million dollars.

Step 2: Forget the Mega Millions or any other lottery that needs a certain ball to be a certain number. This decreases the chances of you winning by exponential millions. Stick with the Pick 6 games. Sometimes 8 million dollars in the hand are better than dreaming about 210 million dollars.

Step 3: Pick six numbers, any six. These are your numbers. Never change them. Pick them based on meaning or total randomness but don’t be deterred by the apparent relation to one another. 1-2-3-27-29-31 has just a much as a chance to win as 4-21-44-37-55-33.

Step 4: Make it easy on yourself. Instead of going constantly to get tickets, unless you believe it is good luck, you can buy up to a month’s worth of tickets ahead of time. Just be sure they are the right numbers and be sure the clerk puts in for the right drawings. This way, if your numbers come up at any time in the month, you win.

Step 5: Don’t count on it but do check online for the numbers weekly just in case. Be patient and wait until your horse comes in. Remember, this doesn’t ensure victory, this only increases the odds in your favor. Good Luck.
