The expression “Go for it!” is a way of encouraging someone to try something.

 

“Go for it!” means you should not worry about failure or be too careful. You should take a chance, be brave, and act firmly.

  “Go for it!” gets name from football. Not football as it is played in most countries such as England, Egypt or Japan, but the kind of football played in the United States and Canada.

  One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has failed, after three attempts, to move the ball forward ten yards. The team must make a critical decision.

  The conservative choice is to kick the ball and accept temporary defeat in order to gain a good position for your team the next time it gets the ball. The more exciting choice, however, is to try a fourth and final time to gain the remaining yards needed.

  In the nineteen eighties, people began using this expression in many kinds of situations to encourage someone to act bravely.

  There is no guarantee(保证) that the action you “Go for it!” will succeed. But that is the chance you take when you decide to go for it. You put your fears behind. You choose courage over safety. You hold your breath and go for it.

  How to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else ).Registered dietitian Barbara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.

  “Go for nutrient-dense foods,”she suggests,“foods that contain a multiple of nutrients.For example,select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food,rather than coffee cake.Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink,which contains only a small percentage of real juice-the rest is largely colored sugar water.You just can't compare the value of these foods, the nutrient-dense ones are so superior,”she emphasizes.

  Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life,it's the foundation of a healthful diet.Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only almost impossible to keep up the strength,they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren't supplied in enough amounts or balance.

  According to Morrissey,trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses,or make you superwoman is a fruitless search.“ As women,many of us are too concerned with staying thin,”she says,and “we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.”

  “We need carbohydrates,protein and fat-they are like the wood in the fireplace.The vitamins and minerals are like the match,the spark,for the fuel,”she explains.“ We need them all,but in a very different proportions(部分).And if the fuel isn't there,the spark is useless.”
