Newton does not translate exactly to fiction, but he comes very close. And we can say, for nearly every scene there is a corresponding sequel. Just most of them. Obviously, all these are grossly simplified, but I think you can follow where I'm going. In any story or novel scenes show us the actions by which the plot is carried out and sequels show us the reactions of the central characters, telling us what these developments mean and leading us invariably into the next scene.
Sequels often evolve into scenes themselves.
I'm striking out on my own. See how, having reached his decision, the hero is compelled forward. The action in a story is dictated by such decisions. More often than not, heroes make bad choices, and it is this which drives the story forward as now the hero must work to extricate himself not only from the vagaries of chance, but from the burden his own poor decisions have placed upon him. Pinocchio sometime and count the numbers of bad choices this character makes.
