why do you think your life is significant? You are one of 6 billion people. There are millions of species with a hundreds of billion living animals. Humans have only existed for 15000 years or so (i dont know actual number), and the planet has been around for billions of years.

Who gives a fuck about you or anything you do. When you die, I dont think anyone will care that you had a nice car and "lived healthy". I dont think it is healthy to strive for a significance that is unattainable, as you will never be truly happy. Humans will die out and the earth will change completely, so just be happy.
