And that is the usual misconception. As a Jew you are familiar with the concept of Shabbat, that is, a day of non-doing. Nowadays it's a legalistic hodgepodge, but you can view it as practicing "effortless action" or wu-wei as Taoism calls it. In effect, it's doing just for doing's sake. Like you don't force yourself to live and maintain your physiological functions from moment to moment, so you neither resist impulses to act nor impulses to don't act.

However, and it's a BIG however, those impulses cannot be motivated by fear or ambition (i.e. desire to get or to avoid), lest they become "unnatural" (or biased, harmful, generating causal “bondage” as in propagating mind viruses, etc. -- make your pick). Moreover, such “effortless action” is basically impossible without going beyond concepts of values, meaning, etc.

And of course, every (in)action influences the flow of natural causes, thus, such Buddhist won’t insist on not changing the flow of natural causes either as that would be obviously utterly foolish.
