Your actions are only as fine as a grain of sand upon viewing.  Stop viewing and your actions will be nothing, and the fruit of your actions will be everything.  We only view as long as there is something be to viewed.  Rid yourself of reasons to view(karma) and you will no longer live in accordance with dharma, because you are dharma.

Rewardance of fruit is always good, it always satisfies.  Satisfication is always good, it rides us of desires.  What we are satisfying is not always good.  Don't start until you are unsatisfied, and don't stop until you are satisfied.

The fruit that we are rewarded with are of the three modes of material nature: Sattvic, rajasic, tamasic.

Dharma means all phenomena, so yes we are dharma, we can have that realization. But dharma gates are limitless, as is our real nature. Intention, action, and satisfaction all belong to the karmic bank, the one in which we all have our investments. But we need to close our accounts, lets get rid of this investment in order to be free from this karmic condition.

Its like an infinite railway track, that is beginning-less and endless, it would make you dizzy to look at it. So we don't look, we let someone else take care of it, we Buddha take care of it, we just sit and enjoy the scenery without engaging our judgment.

Our level of "personal power" is dependent upon how spiritualy evolved we are.  One can only use what one is aware of.  The best thing to be aware of is nothing.

Your dogma is barking.
