To start with, it should be your primary goal to get an instrument rating as soon as possible after you become a pilot. The instrument rating makes you a much safer pilot, you acquire a lot of new knowledge, and you will not fall prey of bad weather - the classical scenario to get killed by continuing a visual flight into the clouds.
