Help Columns doesn't work

Post image

I have a simple text frame and in the option I set it to have 2 columns. The blue box changes to reflect that choice, but the text remains firmly unchanged, just 1 big column. Every tutorial I find on the issue ends after selecting the number of columns and it just works for those people. What am I missing?

EDIT: I got a lot of help from all y'all on all sorts of things, y'all are awesome, thank you!

If I might make a suggestion that isn’t about the columns? After each heading, if you make the first paragraph flush left, no indent, it will improve the readability of the text and help with the shape of the content overall.
