The Bolsheviks wanted to end the war, give workers and peasants control over their own economic and political affairs and spread socialism throughout Europe. They wanted to develop industry and agriculture within Russia so as to provide anough material goods and enough food for the whole population. They were thwarted in these goals however by the Tsarists, Mensheviks and Right Social Revolutionaries who joined forces and terrorised the Bolsheviks.

Lenin's goal was to form a communist society in Russia.

Bread, Peace and Land was the main slogan of the Bolshevik revolution.

"Bread" is for making food available for the people, since there was a grave shortage of food in Russia at the time.

"Peace" is for ending the war since Russia was loosing WWI

"Land" is for wide land reforms since most of the peasants did not posses sufficient land at the time

Vladimir Lenin's main goal was to rid Russia (and the world) of capitalism and replace it with socialism. Socialism, with the guidance of the Dictatorship of the proletariat, would, according to Marxian doctrine, eventually evolve into communism. Communism in the Marxian sense of a societal system could not be imposed without an intervening period of socialism. What Lenin and Stalin later created was not communism. And it was a pretty poor version of socialism as well.

The overthrow of the Tsar was not his main goal. That had already been done in the February Revolution of 1917. By the time Lenin orchestrated the October Revolution of 1917, the Provisional Government had been in place for eight months. If the overthrow of the Tsar had been Lenin's "main goal", he would not have overthrown the Provisional Government eight months after the Tsar had been overthrown.

The goals of the Bolsheviks was to create a dictatorship of the proletariat. This would be the prelude to a despotic socialist nation. Their ultimate goal was the communism espoused by Karl Marx.
