I think "detachment from the specific way a desire can/should manifest" is the goal. Not detachment from whether the desire can/should manifest or not... You let go of the specifics, but hold onto the desire.

The optimal specifics will eventually reveal themselves and at that point, you gotta walk the path. And in some cases, you might have to try a whole bunch of different paths -each of which representing a specific mental change required to reach the optimal path- before you come across the optimal one...
