does the past affect the future?
(OP)
I plead guilty to a misdemeanor in college. I recently submitted PE application, and on that application there is a question requiring documentation for any criminal offenses committed, I included this info. My question is, should I be worried about minor criminal convictions in my past and how it affects my chances of getting my license in any state?

As for your precise question, I think the past's effect on the future is at the very least ...measurable. Look at Korea, Viet Nam, Iraq I, Iraq II... seems to be on the same old trajectory, if nothing else.

Philosopically, wouldn't it be the present that affects the future? One the day we're born we don't a past, so everything in the future is a result of the present moment.

If you can change the past, you change the past, the present, and the future

But being neither a Taoist sage nor a subatomic physicist, I'm content to live in our nice, boring, mundane, understandable Newtonian world, and say, Brizz, good luck on your application!

Probably depends on the Board and on the nature of your offense.
I had two misdemeanors. I spelled them out in an attachment to my application along with the steps I had taken to change my life to insure these situations would not occur again. No problem that I am aware of with the licensing board, or subsequent licensing in another state.
