There is no way to pick lottery numbers, at least not one to increases your chances of winning. Just save time by letting the machine choose your numbers for you. Better yet, save your money and don't play at all. If you really feel that you need to wager, go to the race track and learn how to handicap. At least at the track you can use your intellect to make good bets and avoid the bad ones.
