    b. The way a man chooses to live his life directly affects the quality of his life.

    Explanation:

    Chief Joseph's speech ""An Indian's View of Indian Affairs" tells the beliefs and customs of the Kiowa people. In it, the young chief states the importance of his people to maintain their identity and the need to preserve their heritage.

    The excerpt in the question shows how the Kiowa people believe their destiny. they put great importance on how they live their life, as that will be affecting their life after death. The popular belief of how a man chooses to live his life affects the quality of his life. Stating that "every man (will have) a spirit-home according to his deserts", he warns or rather advises the people to be careful of how they live their lives.
