I received a notification that there was an attempt to log into my Gmail account. I'm really unsure about what steps to take next to secure my account.

First off, you should definitely change your password immediately, especially if you think someone might have actually logged in. Also, if you use the same password for any other accounts, change those too. It's better to be safe than sorry!
I was already logged in. What can they actually do if they gain access to my account?
If they didn't actually get in, changing your password might not be necessary. It sounds like your multi-factor authentication (MFA) worked perfectly!
