1-- 'Get going' = start now.
2-- 'take going' is not possible.

Get going is a very common phrase that means do it now, or take action now. It's like when a movie director calls "Action!" It means something like "you know what you need to do. Now it's time to stop talking, and start doing it!"

Other phrases with a similar meaning are get a move on, get moving, move it, off you go, and what are you waiting for?

In these phrases, get does not mean the same as take or receive or accept.

"Take going" does not mean anything and is never used.
