Can paying attention actually be achieved?

I have started on 30mg recently.

One thing I am trying to work on is paying attention to meetings I don’t find interesting (even sometimes when I do find them interesting). I just tried to challenge myself to sit and listen without doing or thinking about something else and I lasted about 3 minutes.

Is this something that can actually be solved via medication? Is it a practical goal?

Or do I need to switch my focus to physical methods or accept I am who I am. Even if I remove all distractions and forced myself to listen I find it very painful/unbearable. Eg watching a movie at the cinema (even if I’m enjoying the movie).
