I hope this helped. :)
The Bolsheviks had made several promises to the people of Russia and Lenin intended to keep them. His first promise was the promise of peace. He intention for this was to pull out the war and to do this was to sigh the treaty of Brest- Litovsk. This was not one of his popular moves as many people were angered over the loss of land and industry.
Lenin had also assured peasants that he would give them land. He did this by introducing the land decree. He would land of the rich and give them to the poor. This was a success with the peasants but not so much with the bourgeoisies. He had also ensured to the workers that they would have more control in the work place and he did by giving them the workers decree. This was well-liked measure as it gave workers the ability to choose their own wages and times to work. But later on when the civil war started, the workers decree was taken away because it was believed that the workers could not organise themselves. There was also another decree, which was the right of people of Russia decree but this did not work out that very well.
hope i had helped you : )
