"Take heart" has several meanings. https://www.theidioms.com/take-heart/
It could mean "cheer up" depending on the context and the speaker's intent.

Yes, that works, but I would change the position of your adverb in the last part to "You just (or only) have to do it for three more times/days. (not 'more three')
With one verb, the adverb usually goes between the subject and the verb.
With two or more verbs, the adverb usually goes between the auxiliary verb and the first main verb.
