Default Switch to electric fan?

I wanted to wire a switch to my electric fan so that i cant turn it on or off at will. I wanted to know if what i
did was safe. This is how i did it. There are two wires going into my fan motor. One of those goes directly
to the negative on my battery. The other goes to my positive, but not directly. There is a wire from the
positive end of the battery to an inline fuse, then to a toggle switch, then to the other wire that goes to
my fan motor. It works, and I know that this way i can accidently leave it on when i am away. I just want
to make sure if there is something im overlooking. It's a 20 amp fuse and the toggle says something
about 20 amp too. And the electric fan is stock.
thanks, any info would be appreciated.

It should be fine but what I did on mine is to wire a switch to the EOM relay in the fuse box, that's it.
