Turn off the computer and cell phone. Crank up some of your favorite tunes. Make a list- sometimes you get a feeling of 'accomplishment' by crossing things off that you wanted to do. Start by cleaning out the closet.. take EVERYTHING out and only put back in 1) what you wear the most. 2) what you need the most.
Have trash bags ready to separate stuff like stuff to go to goodwill that is too small or you don't wear anymore. Stuff that needs to be thrown out. and Seasonal stuff that you don't need taking up precious space! If you don't have shoe rack- get a box to keep them from being scattered all over the bottom of your closet. when you see how nice the closet looks and that you can find everything... it will give you incentive to go on.
Do the same with drawers, and stuff laying around. Take one area at a time- that way you don't get distracted or feel overwhelmed. Do your bed last... because in the mean time you will using it to sort,etc. Put on clean sheets, some powder or a light perfume. Lay back and look around at the CLEAN and REFRESHING atmosphere you have created! you will feel great and want to keep it that way! Just pick up after yourself as you go and you won't have such a big job later! Crank up that music and have fun!

With all due respect Fun and Chores aren't always related :); BUT certainly one strong motivation (for me at least) is in losing things. It's also easier to maintain an area in small steps than to bring in a front end loader after the fact, LOL.
Beyond that; without at all being OCD; I don't strictly like Mess. I'm not at all well organized, but I don't enjoy living in messy. My choice; as one other suggests is no phone; no comp; and put on your fave music.
Decorating: Hmm such a personal thing; like religion or politics; fave colors or pictures; etc.
It is YOUR space; and one you probably spend a lot of time in. It should "FIT" you; invite you; and create a comfort zone for you; no matter the STUFF you include. "AWESOME" is relative; especially to opinions in personal choices of what one likes. It also might depend on budget; and whether or not the room is owned or rented.
Use and include those things you most enjoy; even at 17 you must have options, and levels of ideas just in the course of living. What do you enjoy/ collect/ have interest in? etc.
