In an epic story, on this day, Rama killed Ravana. At surface level, it seems, that Dussehra signifies the victory of good over evil. But when we study the epic story (irrepective of whether it is true or false) Ramayana, the significance of Dusshera is much deeper.
Rama's wife was abducted by Ravana. Rama searched day and night for his wife. He gathered an army with the help of his friends and well-wishers. Then, he attacked Ravana. In a fierce battle, Rama defeated Ravana. Note, here Rama did not sit idle and cried when his wife was abducted. Rama did not consider the task of defeating a powerful deamon Ravana as immpossible.
In life, victory does not go to the good or bad. Victory always goes to the one who is most intelligent, most industrious, plans his/her actions well and executes it fearlessly. This is the significance of Dussehra.
