Do I want to get better? Absolutely... And the thing with cycling is; it can't happen in a day, a month, or even a year.
I'd say, forget the numbers. Sometimes focusing on the numbers just takes away from the enjoyment of the bike. Just focus on riding a set amount of time everyday and screw everything else... Who cares how many watts, Max HR, etc... I think these things are meant to be tools, not a club to beat yourself with... Just ride and the numbers will fix themselves over time.
