"Obedience sums up our entire duty"-Hosea Ballou

What this means to me is that our duties throughout the day make us obedient or not obedient. It depends on what you do. If you choose to follow the rules and do your obligations then you are obedient. If you choose not the obey and do the wrong thing then you will be seen as a non-obedient person. For example, if you pay attention to the teacher and also wear your uniform to school you will be seen as an obedient person. An example of non-obedient people is a kid who doesn't pay attention to his elders.
