How I did it: Similar to Jenuine, this was one of the first goals I found when I came on board with 43T and after receiving a few cheers from people, I knew that I had to adopt this goal. I decided to start with small steps by taking up goals such as 'give 100 cheers' or 'give 500 cheers' and eventually path my way here. I would log onto the 43T web almost everyday to post and give out cheers and I think that the key element in making this religiously routine is the cheering part. I would return cheers that people have given me and if the Cheer Fairy is kind, the extras would go to newbies or other interesting posts/goals I could find. After almost a year, I'm finally here.

Lessons & tips: Start small. Try not to adopt this goal too early on as it may be a little taxing in wanting to reach the 1k mark, considering the amount of cheers we get on average. I personally feel that we should always return cheers to the people who support what you've written on 43T or aspire to do and don't forget to pour your support for the new people. Be careful when editting or deleting posts, I heard that it decreases your cheers received from the Cheer Fairy. 

Resources: The 43T creators for designing this really fun concept.The Cheer Fairy. People who have provided info on the Cheer Fairy and the cheer circle system. And not forgetting, the amazing people here on 43T who have been extremely encouraging and for their abundance of support, Thank you!  :)
